FAQ: I can't find Addresses or Individuals when I search in my UI!

FAQ relevant for: all Academy versions

If you perform a search in your UI and it only returns eg. Business entities but not Individuals or Addresses, then there are a few things you can check to resolve this issue.

Firstly, remember that when you perform a general search (red box below), it will search within any field sets (orange box) you have configured in the search definitions of the resolver config.

If you have configured these search definitions for all entity types, then also double check for any spelling errors in the resolver config in terms of fields that you are pointing at in the underlying data - these searches go off of fields in the cleansed Document Data Model.

The other place to check is that your elastic has the data you expect in it - do you have address and individual data there? If not, then you may want to review your ETL pipeline, and check out this related FAQ.

Lastly - if you have not done a full gradle build of the project since adding the Individual and Address entities to the model, this may be required to update the UI, so please do this full build and then also run the drop_recreate_databases.sh script in your home directory on the VDI. After this, you should see the additional search fields and be able to find these entities.

Let us know in a new post if you are still having issues after performing these checks!

I encountered the same problem and above steps helped me.

Infact this solved the issue why expansion was limited to business entity only in Investigation.

Hi quick question on this - can you add a screenshot that shows the fields configured under Business? The only field that is visible is Country....would be curious to see what other fields are configured there (ive updated my resolver config to show the same fields as displayed for address and individual, would like to do the same for business)

Many thanks

Hey @Ian_Ush123 ! So that screenshot is not necessarily meant to tell you what fields you need to define 😅 I leave it up to you to decide what fields should be appropriate there in terms of being able to search for Businesses.

ok no worries - thought it would be quite nice to see it, but yeh i get where you are coming from 😀
