Fulltext Search Examples

This page provides detailed examples of possible fulltext search query patterns. All examples use the GDN web console and HTTP REST API.

Prerequisites

• A Macrometa account with sufficient permissions to create search views.
• A fabric named Hotels with a document collection named hotel_reviews. Refer to Create a Fabric and Create a Collection.
• A search view named sample_view. Refer to Create a Fulltext Search View.

Sample Data

The dataset is a JSON file containing 10,000 reviews for hotels in London. Download the JSON file and save it on your local computer.

To import the data into your GDN environment, run the following cURL command with the JSON contents pasted into the data array:

curl --location --request POST 'https://<HOST>/_fabric/Hotels/_api/import/hotel_reviews' \
--header 'accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: <JSON WEB TOKEN>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
  "data": [<PASTE JSON DATA HERE>],
  "details": false,
  "primaryKey": "",
  "replace": false
}'

Each review has the following attributes used for indexing:

• Property name
• Review rating
• Review title
• Review text
• Location of the reviewer
• Date of review
