11. Managed Properties 11 | Managed Properties are now set under Search Schema in the Central Admin or Site Settings. Searchable: Includes the content of the property in the index, making it searchable as a query term alone. Queryable: Property can be used in queries such as Property:Value. Retrievable: Property can be returned to the result set for display or programmatic usage. Refinable: Property can be returned in refiners. Sortable: Properties can be used for sorting.

12. Continuous Crawl 12 | Increased Freshness and Managed Property Creation Tip: Full Crawl is not required for Managed Property creation if Reindex List is selected and continuous crawl is turned on. Manage Continuous Crawl Interval with Powershell (default 15 mins) $ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication $ssa.SetProperty("ContinuousCrawlInterval",5) $ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication $ssa.SetProperty("ContinuousCrawlInterval",n)

14. Display Templates 14 | Creating Display Templates Start with copy of other OOTB HTML display template Always edit HTML Display Template SharePoint generates the corresponding JS File automatically

15. CSWP Licensing 15 | Content Search web parts are only included in SharePoint Enterprise or SharePoint Online Tips: Search Results (in all versions of SharePoint) web parts can use most CSWP display templates. Difference: Managed Properties need to be mapped out in the display template, no easy mapping in Web Part Settings.

16. Overriding Queries 16 | Queries can be overridden for Search Web Parts using Client Side Code, without reloading page! Ex. Srch.ScriptApplicationManager.get_current().queryGroups['e77e5f8b-e52f-46d8-a04c- 7f9d83284858'].dataProvider.set_queryTemplate('ContentType:"Document"') Srch.ScriptApplicationManager.get_current().queryGroups['e77e5f8b-e52f-46d8-a04c- 7f9d83284858'].dataProvider.issueQuery() DEMO

17. Search Rest API Example Rest URI: http://server/_api/search/query?querytext=’SharePoint’ Retrieve search results in JSON Format: data.d.query.PrimaryQueryResult.RelevantResults.Table. Rows.results 17 | &sourceid='8413cd39-2156-4e00-b54d-11efd9abdb89'
