--- title: About the Indexing Manager slug: '2566' canonical_url: https://docs.coveo.com/en/2566/ collection: coveo-for-sitecore-v5 source_format: adoc --- # About the Indexing Manager The Command Center **Indexing Manager** lets you view and modify your indexing configurations, directly from your Sitecore instance. ![Command center default page | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/command-center-default-page.png) ## Accessing the Indexing Manager 1. Go to the [Coveo Control Panel](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2195.md). 1. Choose **Indexing Manager**. ![Control panel | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/control-panel-2.png) > **Note** > > You can also access the Command Center **Indexing Manager** using URL `https:///coveo/command-center/index.html`, where `` is the name of your Sitecore instance. > Non Sitecore administrators can only access the **Command Center** by URL (see [Give access to the Command Center](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2843.md)). ## Indexes The **Indexes** section shows you information about your Coveo indexes and their current status. You can access this section directly at `https:///coveo/command-center/index.html#indexes/`. Replace `` with your Sitecore instance name. ![Command center web index rebuilding | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/command-center-web-index-rebuild-in-progress.png) The top part of the screen contains your document usage summary, allowing you to monitor the number of indexed documents in your organization. These documents count towards your item [entitlement](https://docs.coveo.com/en/q39f0167.md), which is displayed on the [**License & Usage**](https://platform.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) ([platform-ca](https://platform-ca.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) | [platform-eu](https://platform-eu.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) | [platform-au](https://platform-au.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage)) page of the [Coveo Administration Console](https://docs.coveo.com/en/183.md). The **Indexes** section contains the following information: * **Rebuild Status Bar**: lists all of the steps in the rebuild and their current status. When rebuilding, these steps are updated in real time. In the screenshot above, the `Coveo_web_index` index is currently in the **DocumentsValidation** step of the rebuild process. You can hover over an ongoing, skipped, or completed step for more details about that step. * **Database**: the name of the database that's associated to the index. It should be the same as the databases specified in the **Crawlers** section. * **Source name**: the name of the source as configured in the Coveo index. The source name is typically composed of the index name and the farm name (see [Change the Name of Sources Created in the Coveo Index](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2164.md)). * **Crawlers**: lists information about the crawler, including its name, the root from which it crawls, the database where it crawls, and its crawler type. You can start a crawler refresh using its associated **Refresh** button. + -- [Available since Coveo for Sitecore 5.0.761.5] -- + Click the **Edit** button, just right of the **Refresh** button, to display and edit the crawler properties in the **Edit a Content Crawler** modal window. + ![Image of Edit Content Crawler modal | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/edit-content-crawler-modal.png) * **Strategies**: lists the names and types of the strategies defined in the Sitecore configuration. ## Fields The **Fields** section shows you information about your Coveo fields and their current status. You can access this section directly at `https:///coveo/command-center/index.html#fields/`. The top part of the screen contains your field usage summary. You can use it to monitor your usage, as your Sitecore fields count towards your field [quota](https://docs.coveo.com/en/q39f0439.md). For a list of the quotas that apply to your organization, check the [**License & Usage**](https://platform.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) ([platform-ca](https://platform-ca.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) | [platform-eu](https://platform-eu.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage) | [platform-au](https://platform-au.cloud.coveo.com/admin/#/orgid/organization/license-and-usage)) page of the [Coveo Administration Console](https://docs.coveo.com/en/183.md). Below the field usage summary, near the right edge of the screen, a searchbox lets you filter the field tables using a text string. The search is applied on the field `Name` and `Translated Name` columns, as well as on the `Template Name` column (when the **Template** tab is selected). * **Template**: lists all of the fields that are currently configured in your Sitecore instance. These are the fields that will be synced with the Coveo Indexing Platform. When you expand a template in the list, you can then add fields to, or remove them from, the `` fields list. + -- [Available since Coveo for Sitecore 5.0.301.4] -- + All fields of the expanded template can now be added to the `` fields list in a single operation using the **Select All** button. + Above the templates table, the **Included fields** filter lets you filter through all templates or only those that contain at least one included field. + > **Note** > > The `Name` column indicates the name of the field in Sitecore, whereas the `Translated Name` column indicates the name of the corresponding Coveo field (the name of the field in the [Coveo Platform](https://docs.coveo.com/en/186.md)). * **External**: lists all of the fields that are configured in the `externalFields` section of the field map. Those fields are defined in external sources that you want to use in your Sitecore instance. * **Computed**: lists all of the computed fields that are currently configured in your instance. Those are the fields that will be synced with the Coveo Indexing Platform. + ![Indexing manager fields | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/indexing-manager-fields.png) For more information about sections of the field map, see [About the Coveo Search Provider configuration file](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2562.md#field-configuration-settings). ## Security The **Security** section provides information regarding user access to indexed content and lets you synchronize your Coveo for Sitecore identities with their Sitecore equivalents. You can access this section directly at `https:///coveo/command-center/index.html#security/`. This section contains the following information: * **Sitecore credentials**: Lets you specify the Sitecore account (`domain\username`) responsible for crawling the items and expanding permissions (see [Sitecore credential usage in Coveo for Sitecore](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2490.md)). * **Index Permissions**: This checkbox lets you set whether Coveo for Sitecore is configured to index permissions on documents. * **Synchronize identities**: Use this option to synchronize all your [Coveo Platform](https://docs.coveo.com/en/186.md) identities with their Sitecore equivalent. For more information regarding the handling of security identities in Coveo for Sitecore, see [Synchronize security identities](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2516.md). ### Modifying security settings To modify your security settings 1. In the **Security** section, specify your new settings. ![Editing the security settings | Coveo for Sitecore 5](https://docs.coveo.com/en/assets/images/c4sc-v5/comand-center-editing-security.png) 1. Click **Apply and Restart**. > **Note** > > Since Coveo for Sitecore configuration files are updated, a restart of the Sitecore instance is triggered.
