# Configuration {#configuration}

The configuration consists of three steps:

1.  Store the Algolia credentials, see [Algolia credentials](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/meine-krankenkasse/typo3-search-algolia:configuration-credentials@1.7).
1.  Create a search engine record that names the Algolia index, see
    [Search engine](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/meine-krankenkasse/typo3-search-algolia:configuration-search-engine@1.7).
1.  Create one or more indexing service records that select the content
    to index, see [Indexing service](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/meine-krankenkasse/typo3-search-algolia:configuration-indexing-service@1.7).

Optionally, leave unused content element columns out of the page records,
see [Excluding content element columns](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/meine-krankenkasse/typo3-search-algolia:configuration-exclude-colpos@1.7).
