🔍 Omnisearch: Integrate Algolia, Typesense, and friends

Hey, I noticed you are also looking at using Typesense as an option. Connecting to Typesense via the Bubble API connector is a workable option! That said, just want to let you know that connecting to Typesense via Omnisearch will give several advantages, like:

  • Preserving privacy rules (Bubble connector won’t do this).
  • Out of the box index synchronization per environment (any time you change related bubble tables, you’ll have to re-initialize your Bubble connector connection to Typesense).
  • Faster search as you type (the dedicated visual element we’ve provided searches your Typesense cluster as you type instead of with the standard Bubble input delay)
  • Advanced search filter authoring.

Definitely give the Bubble API connector a try but please know you can give Typesense a spin via Omnisearch while we work on fixing the Algolia bug you encountered earlier - our demo shows that the Typesense portion of the plugin is working without issue and I can help you get setup with that! Just let me know!
