# Indexing Fields

The following cases require you to set **indexing** manually:

* Filters on *linked fields* in [API-endpoints](/api-integrations/api-endpoints-security-layer.md)
* Setting filters *on linked objects* in [scheduled scenarios](/scenarios/schedule-triggers.md)
* Searching *by linked objects* in the [Search step](/scenarios/editing-scenarios/action-steps/search-objects-step.md)
* Composing [Reports](broken://pages/-M4O2KQYdd875MCIR7Fe), which includes *conditions on fields of linked objects*

### Configuring indexing&#x20;

Navigate to Data structure configuration, select Show advanced settings, and specify the linked object fields for indexing, separated by commas.

{% hint style="info" %}
After setting the fields for indexing you should refresh indexing. Go to Data structure → Other operations → Refresh all indexes for search
{% endhint %}

### Reindexing from scenarios

Use `$D.system.refreshIndex("servers")` [SDK function](/javascript-sdk/internal-usdd-methods.md)
