full-text query in a scope smaller than the entire store.

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I wonder if there is a way to do a full-text search using webservices within a space for example.  I am letting people publish to a space called "Published", and when users use the search function on the website, I want to search within the "Published" space only.  Thanks.

If you're using the Lucene query language, you may use PATH.

For example, if you wish to search for content containing the text 'hello' within the space /Company Home/Published you can use something like…

PATH:/app:Company_Home/cm:Published TEXT:hello

One trick is that you can log the queries performed by Alfresco's Web Client Advanced Search screen.  So, you can build up the query using the UI and then have the Lucene query logged.  To enable this, set the following in log4j.properties.
