Enable an Index
Enable an index to start indexing files.
About This Task
When you create an index, it's disabled by default. You must enable it to start indexing files and make them searchable for query pipelines using this index.
Prerequisites
A draft index.
Enable an Index
-
Log in to Haystack Enterprise Platform and go to Indexes.
-
Find the index you want to enable, click More actions next to it, and choose Enable.
-
Wait until the index status changes to indexed. When this happens, the files are ready for search and you can use this index in your query pipelines.
Reindex a File with an Indexing Trace
To troubleshoot how an enabled index converts and splits a file, reindex that file through the API with an indexing trace. For instructions, see Capture an Indexing Trace When Reindexing a File.
What To Do Next
Add the index to your pipelines. You can do this by selecting this index on the Document Store component card in Pipeline Builder.
To check the details of the index, including the logs and file status, click the index name.
To learn what happens if you update files with an enabled index, see Indexes.
