Update/Reindex

Hello!

Did I understand that correctly, with version 8 you cannot update a
dataset, only reindex it. In the past, however, this was possible, e.g.
with version 4

That really depends on exactly what you mean by "update a dataset" ... 
8.x should have all the indexing capability as 4.x, and some capability 
that 4.x didn't have.  I am curious about what exactly you saw that led 
you to believe capability was lost, and where you saw it.

David's response is also correct.

Thanks,
Shawn

you have never been able to "update" unless all fields are stored.  if you
have indexed only fields, they would always be lost, it was always a
read/destroy/re-index, but only for stored fields.  if you got a general
text non-stored field it is gone.
