Creating and managing the Split indexer

Overview

After the Master Data Management (MDM) - Resolve process, you can create a complete profile to gain more insights about your master data. Skypoint AI allows you to define the index for the master data. You can select the attributes to create the index for searching and filtering on the profiles page. The Split indexer helps you to find information about the specific profile or group of profiles quickly.

Prerequisite

You must have completed the data ingestion and unification process.

To create a Split indexer

ItemDescription
Add attributesAllows you to add or remove attributes. You can define the specific criteria for filtering or sorting data.

Sort bySorts the output in order (ascending or descending) to view attributes in the preferred order.
Refresh ACSTo restart or reactivate the Azure AI Search process. For example, when the Add attribute process fails then Refresh ACS will be activated to trigger and rerun the process. The refresh process updates the search index and ensures that the search results are accurate and up-to-date.
SearchHelps you to find the exact item that you need. For example, if you know a customer ID then you can enter it into the search field to get the profile details of the customer.

Note: For an exact match, search in double quotes. The search function works for all the attributes of the profile.

Select Master DataOption to choose the specific master data to view from the dropdown list. You can view profiles for the selected master data.
Exact searchDisplays only those results that exactly match the word or phrase entered by the user.

It loads selected attributes into the system and displays them on the profiles page. You can select and update for each master data profiles page.

Next step

Once you have completed the Split indexer, run merge with indexing to merge tables and refresh profiles. You can add more data sources, enrich unified profiles, or create an audience to work with unified master data profiles in various downstream processes.
