userToken

I have a client using Algolia search who is getting tons of spam queries. Their Algolia dashboard recommends that they pass a userToken with their queries, and I’m hopeful that this will help alleviate the problem.

Algolia’s documentation, however, is somewhat thin on this topic, and as the plugin isn’t “official”, I’m not sure the best way to set it up. Is this something that can be added to the plugin?

Here is Algolia’s documentation on adding a userToken: https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/getting-insights-and-analytics/search-analytics/out-of-the-box-analytics/how-to/specify-which-user-is-doing-the-search/

For the record, we are using this plugin with the “instantsearch.js” option.
