About the Extension
Algolia – Search & Personalization Integration for Shopware
Connect your Shopware store with Algolia and keep your product data in the search index up to date, so your customers find the right products faster.
The integration uses the Algolia Search API for indexing and search and the Algolia Insights API for search and interaction events. It connects both systems directly as a native Shopware extension.
Products, prices and categories from Shopware in Algolia
Shopware remains your source for products, variants, prices and categories. The integration transfers this data to your Algolia indexes, regularly or event-based depending on the project configuration.
You decide which attributes are indexed and searchable. The index scope can be extended with further content such as blog or CMS pages, depending on your configuration.
Fast search and merchandising in the Shopware storefront
Your customers get search results, autocomplete suggestions and highlighted matches from Algolia directly in the Shopware storefront. Recent searches help them pick up where they left off.
Category listings can also be delivered by Algolia, so your team can control product ranking and merchandising rules in the Algolia dashboard.
Search events for analytics and AI features
Clicks, add-to-cart actions and purchases in the Shopware storefront can be sent to Algolia as events. Algolia uses these events for search analytics and for AI features such as dynamic re-ranking.
Depending on your configuration, the same events can also be used for Algolia recommendations and personalization.
Direct integration without middleware
The extension connects Shopware and Algolia directly via API. No separate middleware or iPaaS layer is required.
Multiple sales channels and languages
Indexes can be set up per sales channel and language. This lets you run international and multi-brand stores with one consistent search setup.
