Search not following folder links

deepacp

Hi,

I am using FTS search to search for nodes based on the properties passed. I noticed that search does not follow folder links. I tried passing the folder link type (ie. TYPE:"app:folderlink") to the query. It still retrieves only the folder node given its name - does not search by other properties. Is there any way I can make it follow the folder link and search for documents within the folder link by properties.

Any help would be great!

Thanks
Deepa

Hi,

no, using a simple folder link, you can not make Alfresco search for documents within the folder. It is only a symbolic link not a hard link when we use the analogy of file systems. The only way to make the folder contents searchable is by replacing the folder link with a seconday child association to the Folder. Any object in Alfresco can be multi-file and multi-filing works with path based searches.
