Creating Fields
When you are using the Lucene V4L version of Hawksearch you will have to manually create fields in the engine, as the connector does not create fields out of the box.
Creating an Index
In the Lucene V4L version of the connector the index is created through the Hawksearch admin page (your-website-url/Sitefinity/Administration/hawksearchconfig). After you update the selected fields you should click the “Save settings” button. In order the export to be successful you should change the export folder from the Hawksearch settings.

The index is uploaded manually to a folder which is set in export settings of the Hakwsearch engine, or through the FTP. You can set the FTP settings in the Hawksearch settings in Sitefinity’s advanced settings (your-website-url/Sitefinity/Administration/Settings/Advanced).
