Index Profiles

    Index profiles let your applications send documents for indexing to a consistent endpoint (the index profile endpoint) and change the underlying index pipeline as needed.

    An index profile is also a simple way to use one pipeline for multiple collections, without any one collection "owning" the pipeline. Associating a profile with an index pipeline, or an index pipeline and a collection, is simply a mapping.

    Finally, you can also specify configuration parameters for an index pipeline in the index profile.

    You can use the API or UI to manage index profiles.

    Index Profiles in the API

    • Index Profiles API (/index-profiles)

      Create, read, update, and delete index profiles.

    • Index API (/index)

      Index data through an index profile by specifying the profile ID.

    Index Profiles in the UI

    Index profiles are configured at Indexing > Index Profiles.
