How to Reindex Magento After Data Migration

After a data migration to Magento, particularly Magento 2 or later, it's crucial to reindex your data. This ensures that all your imported products, categories, and other entities are displayed correctly on the front end of your store. Here's how to perform Magento reindexing:

Magento Reindex Instructions

First, connect to your Magento store via SSH. Then, follow these instructions:

  1. In the command line, navigate to the root directory of your Magento store.
  2. Execute the following command to reindex your data: php bin/magento indexer:reindex
  3. (Optional) To resize product images to fit your Magento theme, run: php bin/magento catalog:images:resize

Clearing the Magento Cache

After reindexing, it's essential to clear your Magento cache. Use this command: php bin/magento cache:flush

Verifying Your Magento Data Migration
