To Populate Your Index, Run a Target Job

Run a Full Target Update

After you add a Target, you must run a Full Target Update job to populate your search index.

  • After a Full Target Update job is successfully run, you update your Target with (typically scheduled) Incremental Target Update jobs.

To run a Full Target Update job, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Connectivity Hub Tasks page.

     

  2. Click New and the Edit Job page appears.

     

  3. In the Scope drop-down list, select the Content Source for which you want to run a Full Target Update.



  4. Select "Target Full Update" in the Job drop-down list. Other options are listed below:
    • Target Incremental Update: Select to update only the indexed items that have changed since previous target sync.
    • Target Content Reset: Select to remove the indexed data while leaving the content source that is attached to the data unchanged.



  5. Schedule (Required): Select using the drop down:
    • One Time: Runs the task now.
    • Scheduled: Specify a simplified/advanced schedule for your target job.

  6. Log level

    • Required

    • Default: Warn

    • Alternatively, use the drop-down to select:

      • Error

      • Info

      • Trace

    Any change that you make overrides the log level for a job.

    The job logs are stored in the configuration database, so use Info or Trace levels for testing purposes only.

  7. Alert recipients:
    1. Enter an email list of people to notify if there is an error.
    2. This list must be separated using semicolons ( ; ).
    3. Do not forget to configure the email server and address in Connectivity Hub. (Tools > Configuration > Smtp Server) 

  8. Create: Click "Create" to start your job and see the results in Active Jobs:

    See your target job results in the Active Jobs.

  9. (To resolve issues) See the gear icon. > Edit > View Logs: See the logs for the target job(s) that you ran.

See the Logs page.
