When performing some changes under Xray, Jira will suggest you to perform a re-index. Then when is really needed to make this re-index?


So here is a list of the Xray actions that will always need to perform a re-index after changes in Xray's configurations under Jira Administration:

  • Custom Fields
  • Issue type mapping
  • Requirement Coverage
  • Manage Test Statuses, if the option Final over non-final is changed
  • Integrity checker if you perform any Clear option under "Calculated Custom Field Values"

Any other actions will not need to perform a re-index.
