Subcollections support

[smomin]

I am not sure I understand your use case. If you can provide more details, I can try to look into it. thanks

Sorry, what I meant is that if it's possible to use listeners to collections with interpolated document keys something like "parent_collection/$document_id/target_collection"

[smomin]

It is supported. Example syntax is parent_collection/{parentId}/target_collection. One note, there is not depublication process on subcollections. So if there is a record with the same data in multiple sub collection but with different ids, you will have multiple corresponding records in Algolia.

Also, if you plan to use a new index for the subcollection, make sure the API key you are using has the proper permission.

Reopen the issue if you have further questions.

Could you provide the proper syntax for adding a subcollection. I have tried the below with no success.

Recipes/{parentId}/recipes
Recipes/{documentId}/recipes

[smomin]

Can you provide more detail on this issue? Are the parent and child collection both called recipes?

[guplem]

I have the following structure:

• ParentCollection
  • Document1
    • SubCollection
  • Document2
    • SubCollection
  • Document3
    • SubCollection

It should work by setting up the path like ParentCollection/{parentId}/SubCollection.

This appears in the readme

I was confused because after the initial sync I saw nothing in the Agolia records. Creating/Updating documents did make them appear as records in Agolia, so I started looking and found this issue describing this same behaviour.
