Getting Data In

Index multiple files in a folder without monitoring the directory

Is this possible? I can't find any information online on this. I want to avoid indexing the files on-by-one, as there is too many and I would rather do them all in bulk.

Thanks.

Maybe the whitelist and/or blacklist keys in the monitoring stanza are what you're looking for? See the following
