Hi @dixieJoy – Welcome to the Couchbase forums!

Creating a collection index from the cluster has been deprecated, but if going down this path you must specify both the scopeName and collectionName:

    const qixm = cluster.queryIndexes()
    await qixm.createPrimaryIndex('testBucket', {
        collectionName: 'testCollection',
        scopeName: 'testScope',
    })

The preferred way to handle a collection’s indexes is to use the CollectionQueryIndexManager:

    const cluster = await couchbase.connect('couchbase://localhost', {
      username: 'Administrator',
      password: 'password',
    })
    const bucket = cluster.bucket('testBucket')
    const collection = bucket.collection('testCollection')
    const qixm = collection.queryIndexes()

    await qixm.createPrimaryIndex()

I hope this helps.
