TERMEXACT

The TERMEXACT field specifier (case sensitive) allows you to find documents with a specified field that contains an exact match of any of the terms specified by you.

NOTE: If the language that you are using does not match the DefaultLanguageType that you have specified in the IDOL Server configuration file, you must add the LanguageType parameter to your query action.

Format

FieldText=TERMEXACT{yourTerms}:yourFields
yourTerms

Type one or more terms. A document is only returned if one of yourFields contains a value that exactly matches one of the specified terms. You can match strings that contain punctuation (but see Note below) or consist of several words.

NOTE: Strings in the query should be percent-encoded. This ensures that any commas or curly braces that are part of a string are not interpreted as query syntax. If you are sending HTTP requests using the content-type application/x-www-form-urlencoded you should then percent-encode all parameter values, meaning that any commas or curly braces that are part of a string are percent-encoded twice (such that a comma is represented by the sequence %252c). For more information, see Percent Encoding in Queries.

yourFields Type one or more fields. A document is only returned if it contains one of these fields, and if this field contains an exact match of one of yourTerms. Separate multiple fields with colons (:). There must be no space before or after a colon.

Example

FieldText=TERMEXACT{help,helped}:DRETITLE

A document's DRETITLE field value must contain the term help or helped for this document to be returned. If a document's DRETITLE field, for example, has the value helps or helping, the document is not returned.

FieldText=TERMEXACT{Word,Excel}:FILE:DATEI

A document's FILE or DATEI field value must contain the term Word or Excel for this document to be returned. If a document's FILE or DATEI field, for example, has the value WordPerfect, the document is not returned.
