Configuring a Field as a Searchable Field by Using a Change List

You can apply a change list to the repository to configure the searchable fields. A change list contains a list of changes that you want to make to a target repository.

Use the

addSearchableField

change in a change list XML file to specify the fields that you want to configure as searchable fields. You can configure the following properties for the searchable fields.

searchable

displayable

filterable

facet

fuzzy

language

suggester

Use the following syntax for the

addSearchableField

change:

<addSearchableField id="SEARCHABLE_FIELD.<Field Hierarchy>" parentId="SEARCHABLE_CHILD.<Parent Field Hierarchy>">
   <name><Field Name></name>
   <Property Name1>true|false</Property Name1>
   <Property Name2>true|false</Property Name2>
   ...
   <Property NameN>true|false</Property NameN>
</addSearchableField>

The

addSearchableField

change uses the following parameters:

Field Name

. Indicates the name of the field that you want to configure as a searchable field.

Field Hierarchy

. Indicates the complete hierarchy of the field including the field name that you want to configure as a searchable field. Use pipes (|) between the parent-child fields.

Parent Field Hierarchy

. Indicates the complete hierarchy of the parent field including the parent field name. Use pipes (|) between the parent-child fields.

Property Name1,2,...n

. Optional. Indicates the properties that you want to configure.

The following sample change list file configures the

intFld

field as a searchable field:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<changeList xmlns:java="http://java.sun.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="siperian-changelist.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com java.xsd" creationDate="2014-10-07T01:29:15.236+05:30" description="Add intFld and floatFld as searchable fields. DS_UI1" listType="comparison" lockRequired="true" name="" version="10">
   <changes>
      <addSearchableField id="SEARCHABLE_FIELD.Person|intFld" parentId="SEARCHABLE_ROOT.Person">
         <name>intFld</name>
         <searchable>true</searchable>
         <displayable>true</displayable>
         <facet>false</facet>
         <filterable>true</filterable>
         <fuzzy>true</fuzzy>
         <language>english</language>
      </addSearchableField>      
   </changes>
</changeList>

For more information about how to apply a change list, see the

Multidomain MDM Repository Manager Guide

After you configure the searchable fields, ensure that you restart the application server.
