Indexing


The plugin needs an index to perform the search. When you attach files to JIRA issues, they are indexed automatically, but the previously-existing attachments have to be indexed by hand:

  • Open JIRA and go to the plugin configuration page (Administration > Add-ons > Manage add-ons > Craftware  > Search Attachments for JIRA > Configure)
  • Click Reindex
  • Click Back to configuration;
  • Wait for Indexing in progress message to disappear. If you have many issues and attachments, it can take even a few hours to complete.


Until you'll do full reindex after installation, the plugin may find only some attachments, or even no attachments. You will also see incomplete search results when the reindexing is in progress.
