Populating `id_search` Field in Typesense Firestore Extension
TLDR Vera asked for guidance on automatically populating a custom field in a Typesense Firestore extension. Jason advised creating a new field from the application when creating the Firestore document and then sync that field into Typesense.

in my Typesense cluster? The only way i can save the id
in the extension configuration is byte writing <other fields>, id, <more fields>
. but then the extension can’t map that id
onto the custom id_search
field i have in Typesense, because i know the id
field is special and i cant search by it, so it has to be named something different.Jason
