Solr search on string type indexed property

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

As per my analysis, it looks like solr search is not looking for a value in defined indexedProperty of type "String" as I am getting search results from indexed properties of type "text". Example, I am unable to search value provided under Product's code attribute for which indexed property is of String type.

is there any way I can make solr to search in indexed property of string also.

Thanks

It searches but the things is your product code should n't contain any white space. It treats that as a different literals. So either have your product code without any special character and then try or use Text type.

Thanks Aashish.

In general, will look in SolrIndexedProperty of type "text" for search. Right? I am interested in knowing where solr will search.

Thanks

if the product code an alphanumeric you will have issues, you can try change the SolrIndexedProperty.type(code) from string to text

Thanks David.

Yes, it is alphanumeric. I will try to change it to text. So, if I am not wrong SOLR, in general, will look in SolrIndexedProperty of type "text" for search. Right? I am interested in knowing where solr will search.

Thanks
