Settings API - Feedback

[gmourier]

Hi @meilisearch/docs-team!

While writing the catch-up specification for the Settings API, I took the opportunity to write down some little details I noticed on the documentation that might interest you.

Reindexing Documents On Settings Change

In the filterableAttributes API Reference, it is mentioned that updating the setting will re-index documents but this is not mentioned on other settings API Reference.

Changing any of the following index settings will cause documents to be re-indexed:

• searchableAttributes
• filterableAttributes
• sortableAttributes
• distinctAttribute
• stopWords

You may want to mention that for consistency.

Missing Description

Location: https://docs.meilisearch.com/learn/configuration/settings.html#index-settings

sortableAttributes seems missing a proper description.
