Anyone here to help me on implementing popular queries in Typesense. I have added analytics rules, but suggestions are not populating after search,,

Analytics are only aggregated based on the

analytics-flush-interval

server parameter config

So you would have to wait for that period of time before checking the destination collection

I have added interval as 60, I believe its 60 seconds. Even after waiting, I can’t find any data ingested to destination collection

Could you share the output of

GET /collections

and

GET /analytics/rules

The schema for the

product_queries

collection has the wrong field name. It should be

and not

query

. Docs for the schema: https://typesense.org/docs/28.0/api/analytics-query-suggestions.html#create-a-collection-for-queries

@Jason Bosco I have updated product_queries collection and still no suggestins

Can you try freshly following the guide again verbatim, and only change the collection names? Maybe updating the schema can't solve this by itself
