Algolia Multi-Environment Setup
Overview
Algolia doesn't have built-in environment separation. You either use separate Algolia applications (strongest isolation) or index prefixing within one application (simpler). This skill covers both approaches.
Environment Strategies
Strategy Isolation Cost Complexity Index prefixing Shared app, prefixed names Lowest Low Separate API keys Shared app, scoped keys Low Medium Separate applications Full isolation Highest High
Instructions
Step 1: Index Prefixing (Recommended for Most Teams)
import { algoliasearch, type Algoliasearch } from 'algoliasearch' ;
type Environment = 'development' | 'staging' | 'production' ;
interface AlgoliaConfig {
appId : string ;
apiKey : string ;
searchKey : string ;
environment : Environment ;
}
function getConfig (AlgoliaConfig {
const env = (process.env .NODE_ENV || 'development' ) as Environment ;
return {
appId : process.env
ALGOLIA_APP_ID
apiKey
env
ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY
searchKey
env
ALGOLIA_SEARCH_KEY
environment
export
function
indexName
base : string

let
_client
Algoliasearch

Step 2: Scoped API Keys Per Environment import { algoliasearch } from 'algoliasearch' ;
const adminClient = algoliasearch (process.env .ALGOLIA_APP_ID !, process.env .ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY !);
async function createEnvironmentKeys (const { key : stagingKey } = await adminClient.addApiKey ({
apiKey : {
acl : ['search' , 'addObject' , 'deleteObject' , 'editSettings' , 'browse' ],
description : 'Staging environment — full access to staging indices only' ,
indexes : ['staging_*' ],
maxQueriesPerIPPerHour : 10000 ,
},
});
console .log (`Staging key: ${stagingKey} ` );
const { key : devKey } = await adminClient.addApiKey ({
apiKey : {
acl : ['search' , 'addObject' , 'deleteObject' , 'editSettings' , 'browse' ],
description : 'Development environment — full access to dev indices only' ,
indexes : ['development_*' ],
maxQueriesPerIPPerHour : 5000 ,
},
});
console .log (`Dev key: ${devKey} ` );
const { key : prodSearchKey } = await adminClient.addApiKey ({
apiKey : {
acl : ['search' ],
description : 'Production search — read only' ,
indexes : ['products' , 'articles' , 'faq' ],
maxQueriesPerIPPerHour : 50000 ,
maxHitsPerQuery : 100 ,
},
});
console .log (`Prod search key: ${prodSearchKey} ` );
}
Step 3: Environment Variables Per Platform
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=YourAppID
ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY=dev_scoped_key_here
ALGOLIA_SEARCH_KEY=dev_search_key_here
NODE_ENV=development
ALGOLIA_APP_ID=YourAppID
ALGOLIA_ADMIN_KEY=staging_scoped_key_here
ALGOLIA_SEARCH_KEY=staging_search_key_here
NODE_ENV=staging
Step 4: Settings-as-Code with Environment Overrides
import type { IndexSettings } from 'algoliasearch' ;
const baseSettings : IndexSettings = {
searchableAttributes : ['name' , 'brand' , 'category' , 'unordered(description)' ],
attributesForFaceting : ['searchable(brand)' , 'category' , 'filterOnly(price)' ],
customRanking : ['desc(review_count)' , 'desc(rating)' ],
};
const envOverrides : Partial <Record <string , Partial <IndexSettings >>> = {
development : {
replicas : [],
},
staging : {
replicas : ['virtual(staging_products_price_asc)' ],
},
production : {
replicas : [
'virtual(products_price_asc)' ,
'virtual(products_price_desc)' ,
'virtual(products_newest)' ,
],
},
};
export function getSettings (env : string IndexSettings {
return { ...baseSettings, ...envOverrides[env] };
}
Step 5: Environment Isolation Guard
export function guardEnvironment (operation : string , targetIndex : string const env = process.env .NODE_ENV || 'development' ;
if (env === 'production' ) {
if (targetIndex.startsWith ('development_' ) || targetIndex.startsWith ('staging_' )) {
throw new Error (`Blocked: ${operation} on ${targetIndex} from production` );
}
} else {
if (!targetIndex.startsWith (`${env} _` )) {
throw new Error (`Blocked: ${operation} on ${targetIndex} from ${env} . Use prefixed index.` );
}
}
}
async function deleteIndex (name : string guardEnvironment ('deleteIndex' , name);
await getClient ().deleteIndex ({ indexName : name });
}
Step 6: Seed Script Per Environment
import { getClient, indexName } from '../src/algolia/config' ;
import { getSettings } from '../config/algolia-settings' ;
async function seedEnvironment (const env = process.env .NODE_ENV || 'development' ;
const client = getClient ();
const idx = indexName ('products' );
console .log (`Seeding ${env} environment → index: ${idx} ` );
await client.setSettings ({ indexName : idx, indexSettings : getSettings (env) });
if (env !== 'production' ) {
const testData = await import ('../fixtures/products.json' );
const { taskID } = await client.replaceAllObjects ({
indexName : idx,
objects : testData.default ,
});
await client.waitForTask ({ indexName : idx, taskID });
console .log (`Seeded ${testData.default .length} records` );
}
}
seedEnvironment ().catch (console .error );
Error Handling Issue Cause Solution Wrong index in production Missing prefix logic Use indexName() helper everywhere Staging data leaking to prod Shared API key Use scoped keys restricted to index patterns Settings drift between envs Manual dashboard changes Apply settings from code in CI Dev index polluting record count Old test indices Scheduled cleanup job for development_* indices
