How Often Does Doofinder Index The Product Feed?
By default, Doofinder indexes product data on a daily basis when the automatic option is enabled.
However, this feature allows you to schedule the index tasks as a CRON. The system utility cron can be used to schedule programs to run automatically at predetermined intervals. In this case, you can choose between indexing your feed once a day, periodically, configuring a time interval between index or scheduling specific timing (maximum six times a day).
This feature is not supported if indexing via API.
How To Configure Indexing Options
To access these options, please go to your Admin Panel, Search Engine > Settings > Indices and click on 'Configuration'.
A side window will appear with the available time interval options:
-
Index my data every day: This is the default selection. Doofinder will continue to index the product data daily.
-
Index periodically every …. hours: Enter the number of hours for the desired time interval.
-
Index at specific times: select this option to enter the: hour, minute, day of the week and day of the month according to the 'User timezone' configured in your profile section, Account > User> Profile. To add more than one specific time, click on 'Ádd a specific time' as needed.
Once you have scheduled your indexing task, click 'Save'.
