You can configure how Self Service users will view unstructured content, or information in file system resources such as HTML, PDF, by using meta tags. Meta tags are defined in /atg/svc/search/
SearchService
. You can define site and/or segment meta tags on the same unstructured content.

Once you have made changes to the meta tags, you must manually run a Load Post-Customizations Only indexing operation, or perform a full index for your changes to be saved.

Restricting Unstructured Content by Site

You can restrict unstructured content to specific Self Service sites using the Sites Meta Tag function of Search indexing. When content is restricted in this way, only unstructured content that has no site meta tag, or has a site meta tag that matches the current site will be available to the Self Service user.

Choose the sites that you want to have access to unstructured content in the Sites Meta Tag control in the Search Administration application. See information about the Sites Meta Tag and Search indexing in the ATG Search Administration Guide.

Restricting Unstructured Content by Segment

You can restrict unstructured content to specific Self Service sites using the Segment Meta Tag function of Search indexing. The default setting of this tag is “audience”. When content is restricted in this way, only unstructured content that has not audience met tag, or a segment tag that matches one of the user segments will be available to the Self Service user.

The SearchService.enableSegmentConstraintsOnNonSolutionContent flag allows you to disable the constraint is necessary.
