Unable to run Algolia Docsearch in my docusaurus v2 website

Question

I have received my algolia apiKey and the indexName, I have correctly added them under themeConfig in my docusauras.config.js file

algolia: {
      apiKey: 'API_KEY',
      indexName: 'INDEX_NAME',
    },

However, my docsearch is not working. I have applied for docsearch via the free tier.
As per Docusauras docs I need to add only the apiKey and indexName received to get it working which I did but it's not working.(only the loading indicator appears nothing else). Please Help.

Answer 1

I was running my site locally after integrating the docsearch(I didn't push the changes to my live website, silly I know). It seems algolia was unable to crawl my site hosted on the local server(obviously because crawler was configured to run on my domain provided). However, pushing the changes live solved the issue.

Don't forget to push the changes live after integrating algolia.
