AppSearch Synonyms management

Elastic Search
1

Hi

We're working with AppSearch solution and need to manage a large list of synonyms, which is regularly updated.
We have simple scripts to put all synonyms to an engine, and to delete all of them.
Is there an impact on analytics when proceeding this way ? Should we aim to manage each synonym set individually by id ?

Also what are the best practices regarding synonym management ?

Regards,
Sébastien

Hi Sebastien,

I think analytics work only based on the query that was entered by the user, and don't consider Synonyms, so I think you should be OK there.

I'm not aware of any best practices for synonym management. Your approach sounds reasonable to me, let us know if you encounter any issues.
