I'm getting an Xray error and it says I need to reindex my project.

We are getting this error on our X-ray test repository 

Invalid issues in Folder

Some of the issues in the folder are not of issue type Test. We recommend that you perform a re-index of the following project:

It says to reindex.  I'm not sure which option to follow.  Are there any risk with re-indexing?  Are there any precautions that we need to take before we do it?

Hi Jim,

The best quick way for going quickly to the issue navigator's advanced search is through the shorcut key gi typed from wherever you are positioned in Jira.

By typing gi in a rapid sequence, you'll go to your last executed query.

Hope it helps.

Thanks Ignacio - that's obscure but it works!

Yeah, I remember it as if it standed for go issues.

There are other shortcuts like this one. You can view the list of all available shortcuts by typing the shortcut '?'.

Hope it helps!

It's (another) failure in the new Cloud UI I'm afraid.

On server, Issues -> Search for Issues will take you to <your jira>/issues/?jql= but in Cloud  I still think you have to search first.  The url I gave works, but I've had to bookmark it, which is not good.

Thanks Nic, I was afraid of that. Using a bookmark is not ideal but it's better than the current website journey.

I'm entirely unconvinced that Atlassian did any proper user testing with their UI updates. It seems to be built by people that either don't use it, or use it in a very prescriptive way (internal Atlassian people I suspect). Then they push it live, and invite feedback that probably won't get acted upon.

I dislike being one of Atlassian's unpaid Beta testers. :-)
