Connectors - FAQ & Troubleshooting

Where are the metrics and statistics for a crawl?

Aspire 5.0 doesn't store any metrics or statistics for a crawl. Instead, each event is logged in a NoSQL database so that the user can extract the statistics that better suit their needs. See Logging & Metrics for more information.

Why can't I see all metadata fields in my index?

All publishers provide a default transformation file which maps a basic set of fields. If there are any other fields that need to be mapped, those need to be added.

Why does an incremental crawl last as long as a full crawl?

Some connectors perform incremental crawls based on snapshot entries, which are meant to match the exact documents that have been indexed by the connector to the search engine. On an incremental crawl, the connector fully crawls the repository the same way as a full crawl, but it only indexes the modified, new or deleted documents during that crawl.
