Populating and indexing a collection
When you create a new collection, it is just an empty shell. You can use either of the
following methods to populate a Verity collection:
• Use the ColdFusion Administrator Verity Collections page.
• Code the cfindex tag.
Note
You can index and search against Verity collections created outside of ColdFusion by
using the external attribute of cfindex and cfsearch.
