DateFields
Allows you to specify the fields from which to read the document date. The Content component treats these fields as DateType fields for the documents that you send in the index action.
NOTE: OpenText recommends that you use field configuration to set DateType fields, instead of setting this parameter for a single index action.
Separate multiple fields with commas. There must be no space before or after a comma. You can use wildcards.
When identifying fields use the formats:
-
/FieldName
to match root-level fields -
*/FieldName
to match all fields except root-level -
/Path/FieldName
to match fields that the specified path points to.
If you specify only the field name, the Content component automatically adds a */
to it.
NOTE: If you index documents that contain fields with partial dates into Content, the document is assigned a metadata field specifying a full date. This date is the first day of the month if the day is not specified, and the first of January if neither the day or the month are specified. The format of the partial date must be a format specified in the DateFormatCSVs configuration parameter.
