Re-index
This feature is used for keeping the Jira Data in sync with QMetry data. In case the Jira data is not in sync with QMetry Test Management for Jira , then the Re-Index feature allows the admin to sync the Jira data with QMetry Test Management for Jira and fill the gap. Generally, the Jira data goes out of sync when the QMetry app is disabled while adding, updating, or deleting any data from Jira. Thus, the Jira data and QMetry data go out of sync. The Re-index syncs these Jira data with QMetry if it goes out of sync - Sprints, Fix Version, Jira Issue field changes, test asset keys (due to a change in the Jira Project key).
