WD needs to surface the details of the crawl results like the number of records added / updated / deleted

WD needs to surface the details of the crawl results like the number of records added / updated / deleted

OR ... any visual indicator of if a record in WD has been updated, for eg: may be additional field in the WD index showing the update timestamp or crawl timestamp

  1. Currently WD does not surfaces this info on any dashboard or any index query.
  2. WD Crawl logs do log when a crawl was kicked off and when it ended and document the number of updated/added/deleted but it is hard to get to the logs and parse thru them.

    So, does the API without document_ids still help?

    Hi Jasmeet,

    I discussed with the developers regarding the customer requirement. Unfortunately it is not possible because neither of runtime or database keep all necessary data for that. In addition, even if the data existed, handling the data would causes a significant impact to the system performance because the lists can be very long depending on the crawler results. I'm sorry for your inconvenience.

    Hi Makato,

    This is really helpful.

    Customer has requested details of the documents added/updated/deleted also, so they can debug in case of any discrepancies.

    So, can you please include the docuemnt-ids also, against each status.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Jasmeet, Thanks for your response.

    This is not yet finalized, but the API response would contain a crawler result like follows:

    "status": "Completed",
    "crawled": 121525,
    "inserted": 223,
    "updated": 14,
    "deleted": 7,
    "startTime": 1745045187520,
    "endTime": 1745045537157

    Hello Masato, Yes. An API surfacing the last crawl results will definitely help in this case. What will be the output of this proposed API?

    We had technical investigations on this request.

    Although we cannot create a new dashboard or view for crawler results, and we cannot add a new field to avoid conflicts with user metadata, we may provide API to get the last crawler result.

    It will be easier than looking into crawler pod logs.

    Do you think this will help?
