The JIVE connector will crawl content from any JIVE Community with an enabled REST API v3. The connector will retrieve documents stored in spaces, groups, projects and blogs and any sub-folders contained in it.

Features

Some of the features of the JIVE connector include:

• Performs incremental crawling (so that only new/updated documents are indexed) and push incremental crawl (it only fetches the most important updates from the community).
• Metadata extraction.
• Is search engine independent.
• Runs from any machine with access to the given community.
• Fetches access control lists (ACLs) for JIVE document-level security (For this feature you need to install the Jive Security Mapper Plugin on your Community).
• Filter the crawled documents by paths (including file names) using regex patterns.
• Supports Windows/Linux/MacOS file systems.
