    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When a JIRA Administrator starts a reindex (e.g. after modifying a custom field searcher) there's no guidance about how long this might make JIRA unavailable to all the other users. A useful piece of information to display would be how long the last complete reindex took, as an estimated duration for the next reindex. This information would reassure administrators that it's ok (or not) to start a reindex.

            Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue.

            Due to the large volume of JIRA feature suggestions, we have to prioritise our development efforts. In part, that means concentrating on those issues that resonate the most with our users.

            I am writing this note to advise you, that we have decided to close your Suggestion as it has not gained traction on jira.atlassian.com. We believe being upfront and direct with you will assist you in your decision making rather than believing Atlassian will eventually address this issue.

            Thank you again for your suggestion and if you have any concerns or question, please don’t hesitate to email me.

            Kind Regards,
            Kerrod Williams

            Based on the Summary, an additional piece of information would be useful on this screen - how many users (excluding current user) are logged in to JIRA (and thus may be affected by the re-index).
