How to Run a Case Nightly

Running a Case on demand is great when you are debugging an issue, but stinks when you want to build up a profile for how a Case is doing over a period of time! Fortunantly Quepid can do this.

To use the Nightly feature, the Quepid server MUST be able to connect directly to the Search Endpoint.

  1. Go to the Case page and click Tune Relevance.
  2. Choose the Settings tabs and scroll down till you see the Evaluate Case Nightly option: evaluate_nightly.png
  3. Check box the icon and then you will see a "nightly looping" icon flip on next to the Case title: nightly2.png
  4. You can test if the case works in background mode by clicking Rerun My Searches Now in the Background button. This will pop you back to the homepage where you will see some messaging for the case that the queries are being run.
  5. The Case will be run every night. Each nightly run produces a new Score and a new Snapshot. However, to prevent blowing up the database, we only store the last five Snapshots! We do keep all the Scores. nightly4.png
