AEM Mobile Search

All what you need to know about AEM Mobile search

AEM Mobile search functionality
AEM Mobile provides a search feature for its app on menu bar once enabled. When you enable search indexing, article metadata is indexed on article creation.
This is a one time 'on' service which cannot be disabled once enabled. The content gets indexed from then. It can be individually enabled or disabled for different type of apps like 'production app' or preflight.

How to enable search in menu bar of AEM Mobile app?
Go to project settings> Select the project , click on 'Edit Project' from top left corner, select the tab 'Search'


I have enabled the search but I am unable to get results.

To enable search in your mobile app, you must rebuild it by selecting the app, clicking the edit icon, and clicking Submit.

What data is searchable in AEM Mobile?

Article metadata gets indexed in search (which are public facing). Internal properties such as 'Internal Keywords' or 'Article Name' are not indexed. Based on metadata of published articles, for e.g. title, category, author, department etc. If an articles metadata field includes the search string, the article appears in the list of search results.

Note: Search index also does not cover selection items such as 'Metered' (Property of Article Access) or 'High' (Property of Article Importance) - which are internal properties. Items tagged with 'Restricted' are hidden from search results unless the user is signed in and has access to it.

Search and indexing language configuration

Search configuration provides option to configure the index language at project level and article level. We can edit individual articles to override the default project language setting at lower levels. During content search, an article will appear in search results only if its language setting matches the device language setting. For e.g., if the device language is German, articles indexed in French language will not appear in search results.

What is the template layout of search? 
Default Layout in the Layout Templates section of the Portal is used to display search results. It can be changed by modifying the default layout to a specific layout as per the requirement.
