"Search Index Not Created", App Still Functional?

[JustinDallas]

Hello Folks,

Let's say I have an app that while loading can't create the search index due to file corruption and the reload fails.  Can I still binary load the app and use it with no problems?

Hi, 

Index is only used to increase search speed for the first user logged on the app. So I think no problem. You can disable index creation too. https://community.qlik.com/t5/New-to-Qlik-Analytics/Impact-of-turn-off-indexing/td-p/2139052

Kind regards

You can set it on using a variable; but there is no impact on app performance this only speeds up searching for values in the search bar

set CreateSearchIndexOnReload=1;
