Atlan's search index is updated asynchronously from metadata being persisted to the metastore. So there can be small delays between a create, update, or delete operation completing and being able to search for that same information. Usually this is almost immediate (less than 1 second), but if in code you try to immediately search for something you created or updated you may need a retry loop to find it.
