Filtering files in attached directory by extension

We have .sql files scattered throughout a large directory tree that mostly contains source code for other languages. When I attach the root of this directory and try to search for references, it takes a long time - possibly because DataGrip is scanning all the files, and not just the .sql files.

Is it possible for me to specify a filter to the attached directory so that only the .sql files are considered?

I created a feature request https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/DBE-7029 based on your description.

Looks like a Settings | File Types | Ignored files and folders shall help with indexing performance.

The other feature is called "Scopes". Add a new one as on the pic, and switch Files view to that scope. It can be later used for searches and other actions.

It seems like Scopes did what I needed. I'm new to DataGrip, but I had tried them previously. I didn't - and still don't - understand them completely, even after rereading the documentation.

Reverse engineering the behaviour in the application, it appears that, if I delete all my scopes, the attached directories become some kind of default scope that include all files of all types (hence the performance problem). However, if I manually create a scope, those default scopes disappear and are replaced by the one that I created. I'm not sure how the "find references" tool determines which scopes to search, but now it appears to only search the scope that I manually created, and not the default ones.

Anyway, the end result is that creating a scope solved my problem, so thanks!
