it does retain but if it eventually vanishes from the index it doesnt get added back until we manually re update it individually. it doesnt get added with a full reindex.

I dont think we have, were would we do that? in the algolia dashboard or within wordpress?
We also have the issue that this week we updated a bunch of product images in bulk and lost about 3k products from the index, and now if we do a full reindex from the button in the plugin it wont get them back it will only reindex what we currently have in algolia. So we are a bit stuck with the plugin, looking for new alternatives

We shouldn’t but I will check but for some reason it keeps sending more deletes than updates and even if we try to do a full re-index with the button on the search page it wont reindex all of them, it does less and less everytime for some reason.

Thank you michael this is really helpful, I would add that snippet to the functions.php correct? also this is what we currently have as our config in case you can spot any issues.

sorry sent the previous message before you response loaded. but yes it seems like they do get updated on WC that hasnt failed but they get removed from algolia after updating them or at random times.
we do have all the products in the airtable and when we trigger the workflow for the ones that have disappeared they do get added back so I dont think the issue is related to the workflow itself

We are kind of bulk updating. We have an n8n workflow that goes from airtable to woocommerce. we edit products on airtable and they get updated on woocommerce through the workflow. We update each product manually so its not an automatic bulk but we do very quickly go through a bunch of like 20-30 products within the half hour sometimes. they do all get successfully edited on woocommerce but im assuming some of them get removed from algolia and not updated back. Does the plugin have some sort of bulk limit or rate limit?
