Recreating Atlas Search Index

I’m trying to recreate a search index but deleting the old one takes a very long time (about 5 days now)

I thought that by recreating the collection, the search index will automatically be removed but it’s not the case.

I tried deleting it via API and it returned 400 error.

This is the status of the index

200
[{‘collectionName’: ‘admin_boundaries’, ‘database’: ‘_’, ‘indexID’: ‘67402e92179b0e1541b62ea2’, ‘mappings’: {‘dynamic’: True}, ‘name’: ‘address_search’, ‘status’: ‘IN_PROGRESS’, ‘synonyms’: }]

Hi @Sidney_Guaro –

This certainly is not the behavior we expect. Please reach out to me at seth.payne@mongodb.com and we can investigate your specific cluster/collection.
