How do I run the Publish Feed Elements job to index activities?

During intial Service setup, the activities for all your existing records are blank. You must run the Publish Feed Elements job to populate activities for each record with the date and time of the record was created. The process also publishes the indexes required for the Adaptive Search to track activities for all the objects that have activities enabled. You can't run the process separately for individual objects.

Important: You run this process only once during initial Service Center setup.

1. Click Navigator > Tools > Scheduled Processes.
2. On the Scheduled Processes Overview page, click Schedule New Process.
3. In the Schedule New Process dialog box, leave the type as Job.
4. In the Name field, type Publish Feed Elements, and press Enter.
5. Make sure that the Production to Test Enabled check box is unselected. You use this option only to migrate the activity indexes from production to test as part of your data migration.
6. Continue to the next steps. Or, just skip to the steps for finishing the submission, to run the process once as soon as possible with the default output.
