I am trying to update an asset index from a plugin but can't seem to get it to work. Looking at the docs this seems to me like it should work but it does not. I am on the right path here?

$ses = craft()->assetIndexing->getIndexingSessionId();
craft()->assetIndexing->processIndexForSource($ses, null, 7);

7 is the id of the asset folder I want to re-index.

    My guess is you're missing craft()->assetIndexing->getIndexListForSource($sessionId, $sourceId);. Check how the Asset Index Tool does it in craft/app/tools/AssetIndexTool.php. – Brad Bell Jul 22 '16 at 18:55

    You are correct. I was not using it quite right and not understanding exactly how it worked. This is what I ended up with which works great for me. $ses = craft()->assetIndexing->getIndexingSessionId(); $src = craft()->assetIndexing->getIndexListForSource($ses, 7); for ($i = 1; $i <= $src['total']; $i++) { craft()->assetIndexing->processIndexForSource($ses, $i, 7); } – Trevor Orr Jul 22 '16 at 20:53

    Awesome glad you got it sorted! Mind adding that as an official answer instead of a comment? Easier for other people that might have the same question to find. – Brad Bell Jul 23 '16 at 0:23
