Smart Folder: Search for documents

naderm

I'm trying to define a 'smart folder template' to search for documents, but it doesn't work as expected. My target objective is to search documents by their properties, but I started with very simple criteria to retrieve/hit all documents. Here is my folder structure

Folder-1

- folder-11 (containing pdf files)

- folder-12 (containing pdf files)

- search-folder: (smart-folder)

Here is the content of my JSON file:

{
"name": "Zoek Betaald Facturen",
"nodes": [{
"id": "1",
"name": "PDF Documents",
"search": {
"language": "fts-alfresco",
"query": "=cm:content.mimetype:application/pdf"
}
}
]
}

The template finds only one file: docLib, that comes with Alfresco, and its type is image/png. I've also tried to use some of the search criteria from 'smartFolderExample.json' file with the same result. I appreciate any help to resolve the issue.

Hi,

You forgot for PATH parameter.

Hence your query will, e.g.:

"query": "(PATH:'/app:company_home/st:sites/cm:site-name/cm:documentLibrary//*') AND‍ =cm:content.mimetype:application/pdf"‍

PATH is mandatory parameter.

Bayu Widyasanyata‌,

thanks for your reply. I added the path as well. I don't get any hit. Here is my JSON content now:

{
"name": "Zoek Betaald Facturen",
"nodes": [{
"id": "1",
"name": "PDF Documents",
"search": {
"language": "fts-alfresco",
"query": "(PATH:'/app:company_home/st:sites/cm:HBS/cm:documentLibrary//*') AND =cm:content.mimetype:application/pdf"
}
}
]
}

Hi:

Just delete the parenthesis, and try the query again. You must have PDF files in your site.

If nothing appears, may you copy your query directly in Alfresco search ? In that case, do you have any results ?

If nothing appears, you may have some problem with your indices. Try to do searches in this site to check if SOLR is giving you any results.

Regards.

The path parameter that is required is not the one inside the query itself.

The query can be anything, without the need to include the path, as the Smart Folder can show objects from anywhere in the repository.

The required path parameter is used just when you are using the filing feature. See:

Mandatory property in a filing rule. Path to store new documents. This is the ISO9075 encoded QName.
