Algolia Instant Search can't add numeric filter / not working - algolia

Question

I try to have an always on filter in my Instantsearch App (before & while the user is searching) & tried both ways from the docs:
1st
var search = instantsearch({
appId: '------------------,
apiKey: '-----------------',
indexName: 'words',
urlSync: true,
filters: 'sendDateUnix<'+ Date.now(),
});
2nd
var search = instantsearch({
appId: '------------------,
apiKey: '-----------------',
indexName: 'words',
urlSync: true,
numericFilters: [
'sendDateUnix<'+ Date.now()
]
});
As you can see, I have an property that is a Unix timestamp and would like to only get results where this timestamp ist greater then now. It works perfectly when I set this param in the algolia interface. It also does not work when i write the fully filter: 'sendDateUnix < 1519751110'

The numericFilters option doesn't exist on instantsearch. You need to wrap the additional parameters in the searchParameters attribute. See the documentation for more informations.
const search = instantsearch({
appId: '------------------,
apiKey: '-----------------',
indexName: 'words',
urlSync: true,
searchParameters: {
numericFilters: ['sendDateUnix < ' + Date.now()],
},
});
