Configuration

Hawksearch Account

• Engine Name - this is the engine ID associated with your HawkSearch account.

• API Key - it is used by the module to connect to HawkSearch Rest API.

• Tracking Key - it is used to uniquely identify your account in the image pixel that is added to the order confirmation page on the site to track your customer interactions and orders data and generate reflect them in appropriate reports in Hawk SearchHawksearch reports.

Tune-in Hawksearch Dashboard

Fields Configuration

Before you push Magento data to HawkSearch it requires some Fields to be created in Hawksearch Dashboard. There are several Default System Fields which are used to correctly identify documents in Hawksearch index as well as mandatory Products and Pages fields.

Indexing

After extension is configured and Fields are created data from Magento should be initially pushed to HawkSearch. The process is called indexing. Enable Indexing in Indexing Settings and make your first data push to HawkSearch. To accomplish this run the following CLI command:

php bin/magento indexer:reindex hawksearch_products
