You need:Select a Supabase data source

- After the connection is verified, choose a destination index and set up a synchronization task.
Select an Algolia destination index
Your Supabase data will be stored in an Algolia index.- Select an existing index or create a new one.
- Provide the secured Algolia API key for that index.
- Name the destination for easy identification.
- Click Create destination.
Create a synchronization task
Tasks define how and when Algolia fetches data from your Supabase source.-
Choose how to trigger the sync:
- On demand: run the task from the Algolia dashboard or API.
- Scheduled: choose a predefined schedule or enter a cron expression.
-
Choose how you want to update your Algolia index:
- Full reindexing: replaces all records in the index.
- Full record updates: replaces matching records based on the primary database key.
- Partial record updates: updates specified attributes in matching records.
- Choose the table or view to import and select which columns to include.
-
Choose a primary key from your Supabase table or view to use as the Algolia

Combining several sources in one task merges them into a single index which can cause data conflicts.
