Monitor Search Crawl Jobs

Administrators can check the last time content was indexed and monitor the status of crawl jobs. You can stop any crawl job that's running, cancel the next scheduled crawl before it starts, or rerun a failed crawl.

The Crawl Job Status page shows information about the past, current, and the next scheduled crawl. In the Progress column, XSA indicates a dataset. If users report search issues, check the status of crawls to ensure that they're current. After a crawl is completed, users might have to wait a few minutes before they can locate the latest content.
  1. On your home page, click Navigator Navigator icon used to display the Navigator, then click Console.
