Migrate to the November 2025 Meilisearch Cloud analytics

Follow this guide to ensure your Meilisearch Cloud analytics configuration is up to date after the November 2025 release.

In November 2025, Meilisearch Cloud simplified how analytics works. The previous system required routing search requests through a separate edge.meilisearch.com proxy to capture analytics data. The new system captures analytics natively on every Meilisearch Cloud project, so the proxy is no longer needed.

This guide walks you through the migration steps and helps you verify everything is working correctly.

What changed

Before (pre-November 2025)	After (November 2025+)
Search requests routed through edge.meilisearch.com	All requests go directly to your project URL
Analytics required explicit opt-in	Basic analytics (searches, latency, users) are always active
Click and conversion tracking configured via edge proxy	Click and conversion events sent directly to the /events route on your project URL
Custom API keys created on edge.meilisearch.com	API keys managed on your project URL

Step 1: Update search URLs

Replace all occurrences of edge.meilisearch.com in your application code with your Meilisearch Cloud project URL.

Before:

curl \
  -X POST 'https://edge.meilisearch.com/indexes/products/search' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --data-binary '{ "q": "green socks" }'

After:

curl \
  -X POST 'https://PROJECT_URL/indexes/products/search' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --data-binary '{ "q": "green socks" }'

edge.meilisearch.com was deprecated on February 28, 2026 and is no longer functional. You must update all API requests to use your project URL.

Step 2: Update event tracking URLs

If you track click or conversion events, update those requests as well. Events are now sent to the /events route on your project URL:

curl \
  -X POST 'https://PROJECT_URL/events' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --data-binary '{
    "eventType": "click",
    "eventName": "Product Clicked",
    "indexUid": "products",
    "objectId": "product_123",
    "userId": "user_456"
  }'

Step 3: Replace API keys

If you created any custom API keys using the previous edge.meilisearch.com URL, you will need to create new keys on your project URL and update your application accordingly. Keys created on the old URL are no longer valid.

Verify your migration

After updating your URLs, confirm that analytics data is flowing correctly:

1. Run a test search using your project URL and check that results are returned normally.
2. Check the analytics dashboard in Meilisearch Cloud. Within a few minutes, you should see your test search appear in the search metrics.
3. Send a test event (click or conversion) and verify it appears in the corresponding dashboard section.
4. Search your codebase for any remaining references to edge.meilisearch.com and replace them.

Basic analytics (total searches, latency, users) require no extra configuration. Click-through rate, average click position, and conversion tracking still require you to send events explicitly. See the getting started guide for setup instructions.
