## Content Ingestion

Search AI ingests four types of content from Jenkins.

### Dashboards

Each dashboard document provides a summary of the Jenkins instance, including total jobs, successful jobs, failed jobs, job details, instance configuration, mode, node description, and executor count.

### Jobs

Each job document captures the job name as the title. The content field includes job properties such as buildable status, health score, build stability, and information about recent builds.

### Builds

Each build document includes the build name, build number, build parameters, initiator, contributors, and total build duration.

### Plugins

Each plugin is ingested as a separate document. The plugin name is captured as the title. The content field includes version number, required core version, and plugin status.
