Using search in sharepoint 2013 ?

Using search in sharepoint 2013 ?

Hi,
The performance of SharePoint is directly linked to SQL Server. The search service has to process queries, most of which are handled by the cache, but some queries are passed on to the database servers, increasing the load as well.
If load on the database servers becomes too great, disk queue lengths will increase, which in turn increases the latency of all other requests.
So the search service will have an effect on SharePoint performance.
Here are articles about how to improve SharePoint performance, you can use as a reference:

Federation search in sharepoint 2013

I am having issue getting proper results with bing search in sharepoint 2013. The search link which i am using is :
--http://www.bing.com/search?q={?searchterms}&format=rss&Market=en-Us Credentials--
I am passing the searchterms from the code :
KeywordQuerykeywordQuery =
newKeywordQuery(clientContext);
keywordQuery.QueryText = "tender or road Site:http://www.kenha.co.ke/";
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
the above code is not returning proper results. When i checked the log files the search is happening in the following way
--bing.com/search?q=((tender+AND+or+AND+road)+AND+)&format=rss&Market=en-us--
the query text which i am passing from the code is getting converted from :
"tender or road Site:http://www.kenha.co.ke/"
to
(tender+AND+or+AND+road)+AND+
i am new to search and i dont know how the querttext got changed. If any one has any ideas on how to fix the issue please let me know.

Hi Jaskau,

and please make sure that the result of the simple search work correctly.
if should the result is expected, perhaps you can try this method

Advanced Search in Sharepoint 2013 Foundation

All,
I am looking for an advanced search like search based on certain properties in Sharepoint Foundation 2013.
Is it feasible or any other way I can achieve it?
Thanks,
Saumil

Hi Saumil,
Per my knowledge, the Advanced Search Box web part is no long used in SharePoint 2013.
So if you want to use the web part, you can export and import the Advanced Search box web part to SharePoint 2013.
However, only the web parts which have been upgraded to SharePoint 2013 at the same patch level can be used in your environment.
So you can upgrade a site with a page has Advanced search box web part in it to SharePoint 2013 and then export that web part to your site.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/sharepoint/en-US/99e6d5f2-76da-4fdd-8464-24159f12cee1/advanced-search-box-web-part-is-missing

Wildcard search in SharePoint 2013.

Hi ,
I have SharePoint 2013 farm, which is migrated from 2010 to 2013. After migrating to SharePoint 2013, wild card search is not working. Could someone please help me in activating wildcard search for already configured search service application in SharePoint
2013.
Thanks,
Badri.
Badri

Hi
I am trying to do a partial search without using wildcard by setting the query text of the search result source to {searchTerm}*. The search works and gives me the right results. However,
the results look differently.
When I do search for abcd*, the words that are started with abcd in the Title, Summary and Path parts are highlighted.
And when I do search for abcd, I have exactly the same search results back. but the words are not highlighted. and besides that, the Summary text is different.
I believe even if I had the right search result items back, the Title, Summary, and Path properties are created based on the searchEntry. Is there any way to make the items look exactly the same without manipulating with the searchEntry value?
Thank you,
Tatiana

Vinod

Hi,
Here's an advanced post which makes them interactive as well, http://almondlabs.com/blog/adding-interactive-ratings-to-sharepoint-2013-search-results-part-1/.
The crux is to add the AverageRating property to your display template, and then render data based on the value.

Cmis content search in sharepoint 2013

For content search using cmis to work with SharePoint 2013, does it require some service to be enabled ?Issue is :while executing the query " SELECT * FROM cmis:document where contains ('Test') " , this returns empty result; whereas
it should have returned some matching documents which I have added. The same query with out the 'where' clause returns all the documents. I tried apache chemistry client libraries ( webservice ).

Thanks for the reply. I tried the federated search. Configuring the results source works fine and gives me search results in the query builder. However i am getting the following error in the search results web part.

OCR pdf search in SharePoint 2013

Is it possible to search OCR pdf in SharePoint 2013? After July 2014 CU it is possible to configure custom ifilters to override existing behaviour.Has anyone implemented OCR search?

Hi,
PDF is finally recognized as a file type within SharePoint and Microsoft added their own “PDF Format Handler” so that PDFs can be automatically indexed without requiring
a third party iFilter.
If the PDF's are images, These files cannot be searched unless they are processed with OCR and have a fully searchable equivalent generated. The third party iFilter
is able to apply the necessary OCR processing to ensure that the file will be searchable.

Does anyone have any good information on Responsive Search for SharePoint 2013?

I've been having troubles finding information for a responsive/intuitive search. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the reply,
I mean responsive as in it takes common searches or visited pages and learns how to search more intuitively. I've been told to learn about it, and at the moment I've been looking into query roles and such. Is there anything further you would recommend for
me to look at in terms of setting up search?
Thanks for your time!

ADFS SSO and SharePoint 2013 on-premise Hybrid outbound search results from SharePoint Online - does it work?

Hi,
I want to setup an outpund hybrid search for SharePoint 2013 on-premise to SharePoint Online.
But I'm not shure if this works with ADFS SSO.
Has somebody experience with this setup?
Here's my guide which I'm going to use for this installation:
Introduction
In this post I'll show you how to get search results from your SharePoint Online in your SharePoint 2013 on-premise search center.
Requirements
User synchronisation ActiveDirectory to Office 365 with DirSync
DirSync password sync or ADFS SSO
SharePoint Online
SharePoint 2013 on-premise
Enterprise Search service
SharePoint Online Management Shell
Instructions
All configuration will be done either in the Search Administration of the Central Administration or in the PowerShell console of your on-premise SharePoint 2013 server.
Set up Sever to Server Trust
Export certificates
To create a server to server trust we need two certificates.
[certificate name].pfx: In order to replace the STS certificate, the certificate is needed in Personal Information Exchange (PFX) format including the private key.
[certificate name].cer: In order to set up a trust with Office 365 and Windows Azure ACS, the certificate is needed in CER Base64 format.
First launch the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
Select your SharePoint web server and double-click Server Certificates
In the Actions pane, click Create Self-Signed Certificate
Enter a name for the certificate and save it with OK
To export the new certificate in the Pfx format select it and click Export in the Actions pane
Fill the fields and click OK Export to: C:\[certificate
name].pfx Password: [password]
Also we need to export the certificate in the CER Base64 format. For that purpose make a right-click on the certificate select it and click on View...
Click the Details tab and then click Copy to File
On the Welcome to the Certificate Export Wizard page, click Next
On the Export Private Key page, click Next
On the Export File Format page, click Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER), and then click Next.
As file name enter C:\[certificate
name].cer and then click Next
Finish the export
Import the new STS (SharePoint Token Service) certificate
Let's update the certificate on the STS. Configure and run the PowerShell script below on your SharePoint server.
if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
# set the cerficates paths and password
$PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
$PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
$X64CertPath = "c:\[certificate name].cer"
# get the encrypted pfx certificate object
$PfxCert = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 $PfxCertPath, $PfxCertPassword, 20
# import it
Set-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig -ImportSigningCertificate $PfxCert
Type Yes when prompted with the following message.
You are about to change the signing certificate for the Security Token Service. Changing the certificate to an invalid, inaccessible or non-existent certificate will cause your SharePoint installation to stop functioning. Refer
to the following article for instructions on how to change this certificate: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=178475. Are you
sure, you want to continue?
Restart IIS so STS picks up the new certificate.
& iisreset
& net stop SPTimerV4
& net start SPTimerV4
Now validate the certificate replacement by running several PowerShell commands and compare their outputs.
# set the cerficates paths and password
$PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
$PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
# get the encrypted pfx certificate object
New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 $PfxCertPath, $PfxCertPassword, 20
# compare the output above with this output
(Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig).LocalLoginProvider.SigningCertificate
[/code]
## Establish the server to server trust
[code lang="ps"]
if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
Import-Module MSOnline
Import-Module MSOnlineExtended
# set the cerficates paths and password
$PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
$PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
$X64CertPath = "c:\[certificate name].cer"
# set the onpremise domain that you added to Office 365
$SPCN = "sharepoint.domain.com"
# your onpremise SharePoint site url
$SPSite="http://sharepoint"
# don't change this value
$SPOAppID="00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000"
# get the encrypted pfx certificate object
$PfxCert = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 $PfxCertPath, $PfxCertPassword, 20
# get the raw data
$PfxCertBin = $PfxCert.GetRawCertData()
# create a new certificate object
$X64Cert = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2
# import the base 64 encoded certificate
$X64Cert.Import($X64CertPath)
# get the raw data
$X64CertBin = $X64Cert.GetRawCertData()
# save base 64 string in variable
$CredValue = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($X64CertBin)
# connect to office 3656
Connect-MsolService
# register the on-premise STS as service principal in Office 365
# add a new service principal
New-MsolServicePrincipalCredential -AppPrincipalId $SPOAppID -Type asymmetric -Usage Verify -Value $CredValue
$MsolServicePrincipal = Get-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId $SPOAppID
$SPServicePrincipalNames = $MsolServicePrincipal.ServicePrincipalNames
$SPServicePrincipalNames.Add("$SPOAppID/$SPCN")
Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId $SPOAppID -ServicePrincipalNames $SPServicePrincipalNames
# get the online name identifier
$MsolCompanyInformationID = (Get-MsolCompanyInformation).ObjectID
$MsolServicePrincipalID = (Get-MsolServicePrincipal -ServicePrincipalName $SPOAppID).ObjectID
$MsolNameIdentifier = "$MsolServicePrincipalID@$MsolCompanyInformationID"
# establish the trust from on-premise with ACS (Azure Control Service)
# add a new authenticatio realm
$SPSite = Get-SPSite $SPSite
$SPAppPrincipal = Register-SPAppPrincipal -site $SPSite.rootweb -nameIdentifier $MsolNameIdentifier -displayName "SharePoint Online"
Set-SPAuthenticationRealm -realm $MsolServicePrincipalID
# register the ACS application proxy and token issuer
New-SPAzureAccessControlServiceApplicationProxy -Name "ACS" -MetadataServiceEndpointUri "https://accounts.accesscontrol.windows.net/metadata/json/1/" -DefaultProxyGroup
New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer -MetadataEndpoint "https://accounts.accesscontrol.windows.net/metadata/json/1/" -IsTrustBroker -Name "ACS"
Add a new result source
To get search results from SharePoint Online we have to add a new result source. Run the following script in a PowerShell ISE session on your SharePoint 2013 on-premise server. Don't forget to update the settings region
if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
# region settings
$RemoteSharePointUrl = "http://[example].sharepoint.com"
$ResultSourceName = "SharePoint Online"
$QueryTransform = "{searchTerms}"
$Provier = "SharePoint-Remoteanbieter"
# region settings end
$SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
$FederationManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Query.FederationManager($SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication)
$SPEnterpriseSearchOwner = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchOwner -Level Ssa
$ResultSource = $FederationManager.GetSourceByName($ResultSourceName, $SPEnterpriseSearchOwner)
if(!$ResultSource){
Write-Host "Result source does not exist. Creating..."
$ResultSource = $FederationManager.CreateSource($SPEnterpriseSearchOwner)
$ResultSource.Name = $ResultSourceName
$ResultSource.ProviderId = $FederationManager.ListProviders()[$Provier].Id
$ResultSource.ConnectionUrlTemplate = $RemoteSharePointUrl
$ResultSource.CreateQueryTransform($QueryTransform)
$ResultSource.Commit()
Add a new query rule
In the Search Administration click on Query Rules
Select Local SharePoint as Result Source
Click New Query Rule
Enter a Rule name f.g. Search results from SharePoint Online
Expand the Context section
Under Query is performed on these sources click on Add Source
Select your SharePoint Online result source
In the Query Conditions section click on Remove Condition
In the Actions section click on Add Result Block
As title enter Results for "{subjectTerms}" from SharePoint Online
In the Search this Source dropdown select your SharePoint Online result source
Select 3 in the Items dropdown
Expand the Settings section and select "More" link goes to the following URL
In the box below enter this Url https://[example].sharepoint.com/search/pages/results.aspx?k={subjectTerms}
Select This block is always shown above core results and click the OK button
Save the new query rule

Hi Janik,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display hybrid search results in SharePoint Server 2013.
For achieving your demand, please have a look at the article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn197173(v=office.15).aspx
If you are using single sign-on (SSO) authentication, it is important to test hybrid Search functionality by using federated user accounts. Native Office 365 user accounts and Active Directory Domain Services
(AD DS) accounts that are not federated are not recognized by both directory services. Therefore, they cannot authenticate using SSO, and cannot be granted permissions to resources in both deployments. For more information, see Accounts
needed for hybrid configuration and testing.

Out of the box sharepoint online 2013 workflow

Hi All,
I have a workflow that sends a email to a user after creating a new document.
Now a want to attach a document to this email but this is not possible with the out of the box SharePoint 2013 solution. I use the SP 2010 workflow because I need to send a email to an external user.
Is there a solution that I can use to attach a document to a email in a workflow?

Not possible out of the box. Just curious why would you want to email someone files over the email? I think the logical way is to simply send the item link. This will show user the item details and attachments.
Anyways, If that's the way you want to do it then check the following codeplex solution out.
http://spdactivities.codeplex.com/
I would still recommend you to send the current Item URL in the email instead of sending document as an attachment.
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered
