TLDR sonu struggled with setting up multi index search in Typesense Instantsearch. Jason shared a pre-release version that allowed for collection specific search parameters, which resolved the issue.

Right, the issue is that in Algolia searchableAttributes are defined through their UI and not at search time unlike Typesense. So the pre-release version I shared above let’s you specify collection specific search params in the adapter.
