Adding only new documents to an index

When you update an index, Perceptive Search detects files that have been changed, added to, or deleted from the index. You may, however, wish only to add new documents to an index. Using the Add function, Perceptive Search can automatically detect which documents should be added to an index. It will bypass any documents that have been modified or deleted since the last update. To add only new documents to an index:

To perform an Add on an index:

1. Start Perceptive Enterprise Search - Local Administration Console
2. Open the index you wish to modify, you can do this by either:

   • Select File > Open an Index from the menu and browse to the location where the index is stored
3. From the menu, select Index > Advanced > Add
4. You can log the output of an add by clicking the Log button.
5. Click OK to begin.
