App Search connector for Search UI is deprecated and will no longer be supported. Please migrate to Elasticsearch Connector for continued support.

This Connector is used to connect Search UI to Elastic’s App Search API.

  engineName: "search-ui-examples",
  endpointBase: "http://127.0.0.1:3002"
});

Additional options will be passed through to the underlying APIclient. Any valid parameter of the client can be used.
