Include attached file content to page search result

I am having a specific page type with a property that is holding a file as this:

    [Display(
        GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content,
        Order = 400)]
    [UIHint(UIHint.MediaFile)]
    public virtual Url Document { get; set; }

How can I include the content of that file to the page in the find index?

How should I write the search query for finding pages (with attached file) that are matching the search query?

Hi Robert,

What type of searching are you implementing unified search, multi-search, typed search? Depending upon this you will basis how you get the document.

Are you trying to search the document? or more just have a query that returns the content and the file?

Would be good to look at https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/digital-experience-platform/v1.1.0-search-and-navigation/docs/searching to get a basis of what you want.

Hi Robet,

Glad you found a solution that works.

I see that this solution uses conventions to index the document as part of the page model in the index.

You can read more about customizing the indexing behaviour here https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/digital-experience-platform/v1.1.0-search-and-navigation/docs/indexing#conventions.

Thanks

Paul
