Notices

Cookie usage

v2 introduces a breaking change which is useCookie being false by default.

Payload validation

Since v2.0.4, search-insights no longer validates event payloads. You can visit https://algolia.com/events/debugger instead.

Getting started

We have created dedicated integrations for Google Tag Manager and Segment. If you are using either of these platforms, it is recommended to use the dedicated integrations to manage sending events to the Insights API.

• Google Tag Manager
• Segment

Browser

For information on how to set up search-insights.js in a browser environment, see our documentation on Installing and Initializing the Insights Client.

We also have documentation for using search-insights.js with InstantSearch and Autocomplete.

• For information on using search-insights.js with InstantSearch, see our documentation on Sending click and conversion events with InstantSearch.js.
• For information on using search-insights.js with Autocomplete, see our documentation on Sending Algolia Insights events with Autocomplete.

NOTE: If you are using Require.js, see our Note for Require.js users.

Node.js

For information on how to set up search-insights.js in a Node.js environment, see our guide on Installing and Initializing the Insights Client for Node.js.

Documentation

Documentation for search-insights.js can be found in our main Algolia Docs website. For API Client reference information, see the Insights API Client Documentation.
