Introduction

IndexSearch Setting is primarily used in Drillthrough and Spreadsheet datablocks.

...

Using IndexSearch Setting

Index search in Drillthrough allows users to make complex queries to a Fact Query via the use of the Elastic Search Query (DSL Query String) feature.

Click Click here for  for details about the Elasticsearch query syntax. You can also see the example query term when clicking on the help Help icon.

Below is the overall description screenshot. Now let us go step by step to configure it.

Choose indexgroup, one or multiple factqueries and time range in the dropdown, and enter your query string to run the query.

It will show the raw query result in the drillthrough grid.

Multiple Factqueries can be selected in order to query from them. The  The result of selecting multiple Factqueries will be a union of the data in both the Factqueries in the Drillthrough.
However, if both the Factqueries have different schema then the data of the other Factquery will show up             blank.

3. Filter by a selected date with various date options. Please note that the

        4. The DrillThrough has a helper dialog which can help you build complex queries which can be accessed with the help of the Grid Image Removed icon on the bottom right hand side of the Indexsearch Configuration Dialog. With this dialog users can 4. Click on the Grid icon on the right side of the IndexSearch Configuration window to build complex queries. This allows you to generate a query sent to Elastic search to further                 drill Elasticsearch to further drill down their searches.

The corresponding query for the above selected options will look like the one below:

You can also modify their queries to get the appropriate result. For e.g. instead of an OR clause can be used in case of an AND clause below.

example, use an OR clause instead of an AND clause.

Note

A wrong query may result in an incorrect or no results in the

...

Drillthrough.

...

Enter dates following the standard format of yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss

...

for the Query String search to work properly, otherwise the

...

Drillthrough will return an incorrect result. This is the same format with dates stored in Elasticsearch.

Below is an example of a date search.

Note

If eMite is set in a timezone other than UTC, the Date search has a higher

...

chance of failing.

IndexSearch Setting for Spreadsheet is exactly the same with Drilthrough.
