Using Algolia Client

In some cases, you may want to access the Algolia client directly to perform advanced operations , like managing API keys and managing indices.

By default, the Algolia\AlgoliaSearch\SearchClient is public in the Symfony container. That means that you only have to inject it, or retrieve it with the search.client key to be able to use it (see how to inject the SearchService as a reference).

Example

Here is an example of how to use the client.

{
    /**

     * @return JsonResponse
     */
    public function listApiKeysAction(SearchClient $client): JsonResponse
    {
        return new JsonResponse($client->listApiKeys());
    }
}
