[EPiServer.Find.Commerce](https://world.optimizely.com/blogs/Jonas-Bergqvist/Dates/2015/11/new-version-of-episerver-find-commerce/) has an event listener that listens for events trigged by the Optimizely Commerce Connect Framework API. The event listener gets typed content for the catalog/node/entry that was added/changed/deleted, and updates the index. You can disable the event listener by setting the appsettings value of `episerver:FindIndexCatalogContent` to **false**.

Enable the event listener for front-end and edit servers, to listen for remote events coming from the Commerce Connect Admin user interface \[Commerce Manager in version 13 and lower]. By itself, this does not index typed content, because it does not have the types defined in any assembly. Instead, it sends events when something changes, and the front-end server or edit server (with the listener enabled) then indexes typed content of the correct type.

**Service API**
The Service API indexes the typed content if the configuration file `episerver:FindIndexCatalogContent` setting is set to **true**.
