Sitecore Experience Manager Cloud (XM Cloud) is a versatile platform enabling developers and marketers to craft seamless omnichannel experiences in the Cloud using Sitecore's headless CMS. One of its pivotal features is the provision of webhooks, facilitating real-time notifications regarding events or workflow actions within the XM Cloud environment. In this endeavor, we aim to integrate Algolia, a renowned third-party search tool well-regarded for its efficacy in Sitecore implementations. Algolia offers many advanced features including facets, personalization, analytics, and A/B testing. Whether built through a web crawler or pushed via CLI and APIs, Algolia ensures meticulous control over the indexing process.

We will demo this integration with the below use cases :
1. Integration with Algolia using XM Cloud Webhook Publish Event Handler
2. Webhook endpoint fetches the necessary data from the experience edge using GraphQL queries and pushes the result set to Algolia using API or CLI
3. Configure Algolia facets, searchable attributes, ranking, sorting, synonyms, stop words, and pagination to provide reliable and robust search results that meet business needs.
