# UseStubIDX

The `UseStubIDX` parameter specifies whether to read stub IDX documents and merge the metadata they contain into the document for the corresponding file. You can use stub IDX documents to add additional metadata to the documents that are created by the connector.

TIP: A stub IDX document must be in the same directory as its corresponding file, but with an `.idx` extension. For example, a stub for the file `document.pdf` would be named `document.pdf.idx`. The stub must contain a `DREREFERENCE` field, as in the following example.

    #DREREFERENCE My File
    #DREFIELD my_field="my_value"
    #DREFIELD my_other_field="my_other_value"
    #DREENDDOC

You cannot set both `UseStubIDX=TRUE` and `UseStubXML=TRUE`.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False (stub IDX files are indexed as separate documents)
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
Example: | `UseStubIDX=True`
See Also: | UseStubXML
