The Algolia Search Provider for Sitecore is a powerful integration combining robust content management capabilities with Algolia’s lightning-fast, full-text search engine.
This provider enables Sitecore-driven websites and applications to deliver instant, relevant, and highly customizable search experiences to end-users, ensuring faster content discovery and improved user engagement.
While exploring, I found that Dmitry Harnitski and Peter Procházka have implemented the Algolia Search Provider for Sitecore 9.1 and previous versions. Thank you so much!

Upgrading to Sitecore 10.2.1
The following are the steps taken for upgrading Sitecore 10.2.1 –
- I forked from Peter Procházka’s Sitecore 9.1 branch
https://github.com/chorpo/Sitecore.Algolia/tree/sitecore91
- Upgraded the Sitecore NuGet packages to 10.2.1.
- Algolia.Search NuGet package upgraded 6.12.1
- Started resolving build issues – many interfaces changed, and tons of changes on the following commit. https://github.com/chorpo/Sitecore.Algolia/commit/20baf2a5578cac474f16d15938f57068875b8915
- Finally, able to build the solution successfully.
- After the build was successful, I shifted the module to the existing solution.
- I didn’t get a chance to upgrade the unit test project. If you have upgraded, please let me know.
The module is checked into the following repository.

The repo has all the instructions on how to set up and configuration details.
Hope this helps.
Happy Sitecoring!
