Leading practice
The number of items that a source processes per hour (crawling speed) depends on various factors, such as network bandwidth and source configuration. See About Crawling Speed for information on what can impact crawling speed, as well as possible solutions. |

Add or Edit a Jive Cloud Source
When adding a source, select the Jive Cloud option.
To edit a source, on the Sources (platform-ca | platform-eu | platform-au) page, click the desired source, and then click Edit in the Action bar.
A Jive Cloud source indexes cloud content. If you want to retrieve on-premises (server) content, see Add or Edit a Jive Server Source instead.
"Configuration" Tab
In the Add/Edit a Jive Cloud Source panel, the Configuration tab is selected by default. It contains your source’s general and authentication information, as well as other parameters.
General Information
Source Name
Enter a name for your source.
|
Leading practice
A source name can’t be modified once it’s saved, therefore be sure to use a short and descriptive name, using letters, numbers, hyphens ( |
Instance URL
Enter the web address of the Jive Cloud instance that you want to index.
Starting Community
Optionally, enter the URL of the Jive Cloud Community where the crawling should begin. Coveo indexes the content of the communities (also known as spaces) under the starting community.
By default, the root community (also known as root space) is used.
|
Note
Content outside the starting community can be indexed thanks to the options in the Content to include section. |
Exclude Unpublished Items
Check this box if you want to index only the items whose status is Published
.
Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
If you want Coveo to extract text from image files or PDF files containing images, check the appropriate box. OCR-extracted text is processed as item data, meaning that it’s fully searchable and will appear in the item Quick View. See Enable Optical Character Recognition for details on this feature.
|
Note
Contact Coveo Sales to add this feature to your organization license. |
Allow Anonymous Access
Check this box to map the Everyone group in Jive Cloud to the Everyone group of the Email security identity provider.
|
When you check this box, all items accessible to the Everyone group in Jive Cloud become public. In other words, any user (authenticated or anonymous) of your search interface can find these items in their search results. |
"Authentication" Section
Enter the credentials of a dedicated Jive Cloud account with Full Access permissions to your Jive Cloud instance. See Source Credentials Leading Practices.
"Content to Include" Section
Check the boxes corresponding to the content you want to index.
People
Check this box to index user profiles, personal blogs, and private items (items and discussions). Private messages (also known as direct messages) aren’t included.
|
Since it’s not possible to apply permissions to people items, we strongly recommend that you don’t check the People box. Your Jive Cloud user profiles probably contain private information, and checking this box would make this data available to all search interface users. Moreover, enabling this parameter significantly increases the crawling time. If you need to index people content, you should create a separate Jive Cloud source specifically to index this content. |
"Content Security" Tab
Select who will be able to access the source items through a Coveo-powered search interface. For details on this parameter, see Content Security.
"Access" Tab
In the Access tab, set whether each group and API key can view or edit the source configuration (see Resource Access):
-
If available, in the left pane, click Groups or API Keys to select the appropriate list.
-
In the Access Level column for groups or API keys with access to source content, select View or Edit.
Completion
-
Finish adding or editing your source:
-
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 Source/Save.
NoteOn the Sources (platform-ca | platform-eu | platform-au) page, you must click Launch build or Start required rebuild in the source Status column to add the source content or to make your changes effective, respectively.
-
When you’re done editing the source and want to make changes effective, click Add and Build Source/Save and Rebuild Source.
Back on the Sources (platform-ca | platform-eu | platform-au) page, you can review the progress of your source addition or modification.
Once the source is built or rebuilt, you can review its content in the Content Browser.
-
-
Optionally, consider editing or adding mappings once your source is done building or rebuilding.
