Managing Search Indexes

This topic describes how to generate search indexes required to display data on Redwood Experience pages and to run search queries to filter and find information quickly.

Overview

Redwood Experience pages displaying lists of information, such as the pages that display the list of submitted applications use Oracle Search Cloud Service (OSCS). Before data can be displayed on these page and searched against, you must first build the associated search index for that page.

Note:

Typically, if the search index doesn't exist for a Redwood Experience page displaying a list of information, the page will display no rows of data.

Enabling Global Search for the Redwood Experience

To enable global search:

1. Access Functional Setup Manager for your offering, such as Public Sector Permits.

2. Click the Change Feature Opt In link.

3. In the System Administration area, enable Redwood Experience for Global Search.

4. Click Done.

Identifying Search Indexes

Oracle Permitting and Licensing delivers a set of search indexes, each associated with a specific Redwood Experience page. You'll need to build the search index for each page as described in the next section.

Index	Offering	Description
fa-psc-applications	Permits Planning and Zoning Business Licenses	Displays data on the page displaying submitted applications.
fa-psc-ce-case	Code Enforcement	Displays data on the case list page.
fa-psc-ce-citation	Code Enforcement	Displays data on the citation list page.
fa-psc-ce-incident	Code Enforcement	Displays data on the incident list page.
fa-psc-inspections	Permits Planning and Zoning Business Licenses	Displays data on the inspections list page.
fa-psc-apo-parcel	Permits Planning and Zoning Business Licenses	Displays data on the parcel list page.
fa-psc-apo-address	Permits Planning and Zoning Business Licenses	Displays data on the address list page.

Building a Search Index

Using the table in the previous section as a guide, build each search index you need depending on the offerings you are implementing. Repeat these steps for each search index.

To build a search index:

1. Sign in as an administrator.

2. Access the Fusion Home page or select Setup and Maintenance within Oracle Permitting and Licensing.

3. Select Navigator > Tools > Scheduled Processes.

4. Click Schedule New Process.

5. Search for and open this ESS job: ESS job to create index definition and perform initial ingest to OSCS.

6. On the Process Details page, enter the name of the index as the job parameter in the Index Name to Reingest field.

   For example: fa-psc-applications.

7. Click Submit.
