Direct Indexing

Direct indexing allows you to specify the target index for data at the underlying collection stage. Once a direct index is successfully created, the DataKit collector matches and reports data based on the index name.

Create

  1. Navigate to Create > Direct Indexing.
  2. Define a custom name for the index.
  3. Optionally add a description.
  4. Configure the data retention policy.
  5. Confirm.
Important
  • After creation, if the index name defined in the DataKit configuration does not match any direct index name configured in the console, the data will be discarded and not written.
  • If the direct index has not been created in the console, data will be discarded even if it is defined in the DataKit configuration.
