SearchCategory Class

This section provides an overview of the SearchCategory class and discusses:

• SearchCategory class methods.

• SearchCategory class properties.

SearchCategory is the PeopleCode representation of a search category definition, which groups search data source definitions. A search category is a searchable collection of indexes. SearchCategory objects can only be constructed by giving the name of a search category definition that has already been saved to the database. In general SearchCategory objects are instantiated either to be assigned to the Categories property of a SearchQuery object or to be passed to methods of the SearchAdminService.
