ais-index
Angular InstantSearch isn’t compatible with Angular’s Ivy view engine. We’re investigating how best to support this. For more information and to vote for Algolia’s support of Angular 16 and beyond, see the GitHub issue Algolia Support for Angular InstantSearch

About this widget
This widget lets you apply widgets to a specific index. This is useful when you want to build an interface that targets multiple indices.
You can learn more about this pattern, called “Federated Search”, in the guides on multi-index search.
The position of index
in the widgets tree impacts which search parameters apply. Widgets that create search parameters forward them to their child index
widgets.

<ais-instant-search>
<ais-search-box></ais-search-box>
<ais-hits></ais-hits>
<ais-index indexName="media">
<!-- The index inherits from the parent's `searchBox` search parameters -->
<ais-hits></ais-hits>
</ais-index>
</ais-instant-search>
The only exception to this rule is when two widgets own the same part of your UI state, like two ais-search-box
widgets or two ais-refinement-list
widgets on the same attribute. In that case, the latter takes precedence and overrides the search parameters.

The same rule applies when you nest multiple index
widgets.
