About this method

Copy the settings of an index to another index on the same app.

The copySettings method removes all current settings of the destination index, and replaces them with the settings from the source index.

If the destination index doesn’t exist, the copySettings method creates it. In that case, the new index has the settings of the source index, but not the records, Rules, or synonyms.

This method does not copy the enableReRanking and mode settings.

To copy more than settings, use the copyIndex method with the appropriate scope parameter.
