Rebuilding the xDB search index

Version:

The process for rebuilding the xDB search index currently depends on the search provider. You must rebuild the index if:

  • The indexer goes offline for longer than the change tracking retention period

  • You make changes to the indexing settings for PII sensitive data or anonymous contacts

For more information, see:

  • Rebuild the xDB index in Azure Search

  • Rebuild the xDB index in Solr
