# Discover Nodes
<a name="config-wrkr-cf-cg-add-discover"></a>

If a node did not appear in the list of all nodes, you can force its discovery.

**Note**  
If this is your first time discovering or add node to a Conductor File cluster, you must [add the nodes via the CLI](config-wrkr-cf-cg-add.md#config-wrkr-cf-cg-add.title) prior to using the web interface for any operations.

**To force discovery**

1. On the primary Conductor web interface, hover over **Nodes** and select Discover Node****.

1. On the **Discover Node** screen, type the hostname or IP address of the node and choose **Discover Node**. 

The node appears in the **All Nodes** tab on the **Nodes** screen.
