Reindexing rebuilds the full-text and vector search indexes for a world. Use this after bulk imports or when search results seem stale. For how the search index is built, see the Worlds search docs.

​
When to reindex

  • After a large import
  • When search results do not reflect recent changes
  • If the search index state is unknown

​
Reindex a world

  1. Open the Wazoo Console.
  2. Select a world.
  3. Click Reindex World in the world header.
Reindexing is asynchronous. The button shows a confirmation when the reindex completes. Depending on world size, reindexing can take from seconds to minutes.

​
What happens

Reindexing processes every triple in the world and:
  1. Updates the full-text search index.
  2. Recomputes vector embeddings for text literals.
  3. Rebuilds the graph structure index.
The world remains available for queries during reindexing. SPARQL queries continue to work off the underlying graph store.
