CloudNine™ Explore automatically creates an index when you import files into a case. During the indexing process, CloudNine™ Explore reads each imported file and compiles an index based on each word it reads. The index is used when you run searches so you can locate important words, dates, and text phrases easily in your case records.

When you import new files into a case, the new files are automatically indexed and included when running new or saved searches.

The index settings for a case are defined on the Indexer tab in the New Case Settings and Edit Case Settings dialogs. If you modify a case's index settings or change a case custodian name, you will need to manually re-index the case by rebuilding the index.

For more information about rebuilding and managing case indexes, see Managing Indexes.
