In Search, it is not an exageration to say the property mapping is the heart of the customized search intelligence. Managed properties allow search to be customized, to serve an organization\u2019s needs. I thought it would be useful to report on the mapping of the managed properties to crawled properties. I use a CSV format for the report, where a \u2018|\u2019 is used as the delimiter, and a semi-colon is used to separate crawled properties. Using Excel, one can easily convert pipe-delimited into columns.<\/p>\n
The first thing we want to do is get the collection of managed properties using Get-FASTSearchMetadataManagedProperty. Then for each Managed Property, we get the associated crawled properties using the getcrawledPropertyMappings() method. Here\u2019s the full script:<\/p>\n
