c# - How to search for documents not yet indexed

assistenza

Hi.

I developed a software for massive documents upload. Before loading each document I want to check if there is already a document with an attribute class enhanced with the same value. To do it use the "SearchService" WebService. The problem is that this webservice perform the serach only on documents already indexed. Is there a way to make the search even on documents not indexed? 

Thx

Hi Riccardo,

 

Search functionality relies on index data.  If the object has not yet been indexed, then you cannot use search to find it.

If you want to query the database directly for live category attribute information, this could be accomplished through a LiveReport that queries the LLAttrData database table.

Create a LiveReport in Content Server, obtain the report’s ID, then call RunReport from the DocumentManagement web service to execute the report.

There have been posts in this forum on the topic of executing a LiveReport if you’re looking for further information.

 

Best regards,

Kyle
