xECM - new attribute does not appear in Regions overview automatically

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have created a new attribute (as part of a category) in xECM. Normally, such a new attribute would appear automatically in the 'Regions' overview (Admin —> Content Server Administration —> System Object Volume —> Enterprise Data Source Folder —> right click on menu of 'Enterprise Search Manager —> select 'Properties' —> 'Regions'.

Now, this new attribute does not appear. What can be the cause of this issue?

Try giving the attribute a value on a test document and make sure it is indexed. It should then appear in the Regions overview.

Thank you, this indeed solved the issue. Only definining the attribute and assigning it to an object is not enough: specifying a value does the trick! :-)
