Configuring Indexing
Important:You must create the required indexes before continuing with subsequent configuration and external connection steps.
Table indexes improve database performance and can help optimize slow queries. Creating these indexes will boost the performance of the Flexera One app’s data transformation processes. The following tables have one or more fields that require indexing. The field label and field name are provided, below, to clearly identify which fields to index.
