Search Returns Stale or Missing Results

Fix search results that are out of date or missing objects that exist in the graph.

Symptom

  • Objects that exist in the graph do not appear in the search results.
  • Search results contain objects that were removed in a recent re-import.
  • After an upgrade, search results are incomplete.

Likely causes

Cause How to confirm
Search index not updated after import Compare a known object name against what appears in search
Failed ETL run Check the import logs for errors
Index corrupted during upgrade Problem started after an upgrade

Resolution

Rebuild the search index

See Rebuild the search index.

Re-run the import

If the ETL failed, trigger a new import to repopulate the index.
