Managing my indexing rules

Each index has a set of rules that control what will be added to the index. Perceptive Search supports indexing for many different systems, so each system must be configured independently.

To view the indexing rules for your index:

  1. Open the index you wish to modify, you can do this by either:
    • Selecting it from the My Index Catalog list
    • Select File > Open an Index from the menu and browse to the location where the index is stored
  2. From the menu, select Index > Content Sources, the indexing rules for your index will be shown

  1. Indexing Rule Types

    Add a new rule of this type
    Edit the selected rule
    Delete the selected rule
  3. Rule List
