Hey Elitzur ~

Unfortunately, Site Search does not have an API based method of importing synonyms.

The current method is outlined within this guide: [https://swiftype.com/documentation/site-search/guides/synonyms](https://swiftype.com/documentation/site-search/guides/synonyms).

Hopefully that's not too tedious!

Enjoy the week,

Kellen
