Api to crawl/index specific urls into web collection

[kanwaljit.singh]

We are exploring methods to 'delta' update on indexes for a web collection using api i.e. without a need to logging to the admin console. Is there any api mechanism available to provide one or a group of url's for a web collection to crawl and update it's index'es

We just don't want to run the full crawl from admin console and do a url update

Additionally - Is this available for updating existing url's or NEW url's please advice

Cheers

You can use instant updates (web and filecopy collections only) available from the advanced update option (from the admin interface) to add or remove individual URLs and sites from the search. This will allow you to add and remove items between crawls (you can't run an instant update while the collection is updating though).
https://docs.funnelback.com/15.24/collections/collection-overview/instant-updates.html

You can add new or update existing urls. There isn't any API access to this feature.

Note: if your collection has workflow command configured you may need to add some extra workflow to handle instant updates.
