Reindexing is typically needed after deploying a fresh Typesense instance, migrating to a new Typesense cluster, or recovering from Typesense data loss while your primary database remains intact. In this scenario, Typesense is empty while your primary database holds transactions, balances, ledgers, and identities. Reindexing populates Typesense with all existing records so search works correctly.

​
How it works

1

Trigger the reindex

Blnk reads all records from your database and indexes them into their respective Typesense collections (transactions, balances, ledgers, identities).
curl -X POST "http://localhost:5001/search/reindex"
2

Monitor progress

Check the reindex status. Completion time depends on the size of your data.
curl -X GET "http://localhost:5001/search/reindex"
3

Verify completeness

Once the reindex finishes, confirm that all records are in Typesense by searching each collection with q: "*" to return all records.
curl -X POST http://localhost:5001/search/{collection} \
-H 'X-Blnk-Key: YOUR_API_KEY' \
-d '{ "q": "*" }'
Compare found and out_of values with your expected record counts. If anything is missing, run the reindex again.
