Import entries into a Knowledge Library Index
After you've created the new Knowledge Library Index, you'll want to populate it with the applicable Knowledge Library entries.
To import entries into a Knowledge Library Index:
- On the ribbon, click File | Knowledge Library | Knowledge Library Index. Select the applicable KLI and click OK.
- In the Knowledge Library Index, click File | Import Knowledge Library Entries....
- Navigate to the folder containing the Knowledge Library entries that you want to import. Click Select Folder.

Notes:
- Never replace library entries using Windows Explorer (i.e. copy & paste) as it can cause database corruption. If you need to modify an entry, do so in CaseView.
- After modifying and saving an entry from the Knowledge Library Index, you'll receive a prompt to increment the version number. The new version number will update the version field in the database.
