How do I check which version of the global search service I have?
If you use Creatio cloud, you will always have the latest version of the global search service.
If you use Creatio on-site, run the following console command:
docker ps
This will open the list of all containers. The number of global search version will be available in the “image” column.
How do I initiate the re-indexing of my Creatio site?
For global search versions lower than 2.0:
1. Open gs-mysql container via the following command:
docker exec -it gs-mysql bash
2. Run the following command in the opened gs-mysql container:
mysql -p1665017 use gs; UPDATE GlobalSearchIndexingEntity SET LastIndexedOn = NULL, InProcess = 0;
For global search version 2.0 and up:
Execute the following request on
gs-web-api: `/indexation/{siteName}/reindex/fullHow do I enable logging the global search service?
By default, the service logs only errors. To enable logging of all events, locate the following string in the docker-compose.yaml file:
-Log4NetPath=${LOG$NET_CONFIG_FILE:-log4net.production.config}Replace the string with the following string:
-Log4NetPath=${LOG$NET_CONFIG_FILE:-log4net.debug.config}Note that if you enable logging of all events, the number of log files will increase significantly.
Which metrics and tracking schema can I use to monitor the global search operation?
Execute the following request:
http://[GS-WEB-API]:81/sites/[SITE_NAME]/search/state
Here, [GS-WEB-API] is the server address, and [SITE_NAME] is your Creatio website name.
