Ensure your Jive server meets the source requirements (see Requirements).

If not already in the Add/Edit a Jive Server Source panel, go to the panel:

• To add a source, in the main menu, under Content, select Sources > Add Source button > Jive > Jive Server.

OR

• To edit a source, in the main menu, under Content, select Sources > source row > Edit in the Action bar.

In the Configuration tab:

1. Under Supported Versions, check if your version of Jive is supported.

2. Under Content Update and Security Requirement:

   1. If you are using a supported Jive version, download the Coveo plugin for Jive by clicking Download Plugin and then install the plugin on your Jive server (see Installing the Coveo Plugin for Jive).

      If you use an unsupported Jive version (6.2 to 7.x), you have to download the following plugin:

      Coveo plugin for Jive 6.2 to 7.0

      If you want to include permissions and perform source refreshes, you must install the Coveo plugin for Jive on your Jive server (see Source Features Summary).

   2. Enter appropriate values for available parameters:

      • Source name

        A descriptive name for your source under 255 characters (not already in use for another source in this organization).

        Jive-Community

      • Instance URL

        The web address of the Jive instance that you want to index.

        https://<jiveServer>

      • Starting community

        (Optional) The URL of a Jive Community where the crawling begins.

        • Only communities (also known as spaces) under the starting community are indexed.

        • By default, the root community (also known as root space) is used.

        • Content outside the starting community can be indexed if you select the following options in the Content to include section (see Content to include section):

          • Include projects

          • Include social groups (also known as groups)

          • Include system blogs

          • Include people

      • Security

        Select by whom the Jive Community content is searchable (see Source Permission Types):

        • Private - Only you, the source creator

          OR

        • Shared - Everyone

          OR

        • Secured - Only users authenticated in the search interface can see the source items for which they have read permission.

          If you want to create a secured source to use with the Coveo On-Premises Crawling Module, contact the Coveo Support team (see Coveo On-Premises Crawling Module).

      • Allow anonymous access

        Select to map the Everyone group in Jive to the Everyone group of the Email identity security provider.

        When selected, all users (authenticated and anonymous) can see the Jive content allowed to Jive Everyone in search results.

   Authentication section

   • Username

     The Jive account with Full Access permissions to the Jive instance.

   • Password

     The corresponding password.

   Content to include section

   Consider changing the default value of the settings in this section when you want to fine-tune how your Jive instance is crawled.

   By default, all Jive content is indexed, regardless of its status (except private users content under the Jive Community domain).

   • Turn off one or more of the following settings when you want to prevent specific Jive places from being included in the index:

     • Communities (also known as spaces)

     • Projects

     • Social groups (also known as groups)

     • System blogs

   • Optionally turn on the following option:

     • People

       Includes user profiles, personal blogs, and private items (items and discussions). Private messages (also known as direct messages) are not included.

       Since Coveo cannot index content permissions, it is STRONGLY recommended NOT to enable the Include people setting. Private information could then be disclosed, even if private messages are not indexed. Also, turning on this setting significantly increases the crawling time. If you need to index people content, you should create a separate source and only turn on the Include people setting.

     • Published items only

       Includes Jive items for which the status is Published. Items with other statuses (such as Draft, Scheduled, Awaiting Moderation, Rejected, Abuse Hidden, Abuse Visible, Archived, Expired, Pending Approval, Deleted, Processing, Error, Unknown) are not included.

       Source refresh catches Jive item status changes and respects the configuration of this parameter.

In the Configuration Access tab, determine whether each group and API key can view or edit the source configuration. In the Access Level column, select View or Edit for each available group. On the left-hand side of the tab, if available, click Groups or API Keys to switch lists.

Optionally, consider editing or adding mappings (see Edit the Mappings of a Source: [SourceName]).

Finish adding/editing your source:

• Click Add Source/Save when you want to save your source configuration changes without starting a build/rebuild, such as when you know you want to do other changes soon.

• Click Add and Build Source/Save and Rebuild Source when you are done editing the source and want to make changes effective.

  Back in the Coveo Cloud administration console Sources page, you can review the progress of your Jive source addition or modification (see Sources - Page).

Once the source is built or rebuilt, you can review its content in the content browser (see Content Browser - Page).
