Update your GraphQL queries that may have used a custom API name for your content model to using the default name of the content model instead.

A GraphQL query may use the damAssetLucene index instead of the fragments index. This action might result in GraphQL queries that fail, or take a long time to run.

To correct the problem, damAssetLucene has to be configured to include the following two properties under /indexRules/dam:Asset/properties:

• contentFragment

  • jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
  • name="jcr:content/contentFragment"
  • propertyIndex="{Boolean}true"
  • type="Boolean"

• model

  • jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
  • name="jcr:content/data/cq:model"
  • ordered="{Boolean}true"
  • propertyIndex="{Boolean}true"
  • type="String"

After the index definition is changed, a reindexing is required (reindex = true).

After these steps, the GraphQL queries should perform faster.

When trying to move/delete/publish either Content Fragments or Sites/Pages, there is an issue when Content Fragment references are fetched, as the background query fails. That is, the functionality does not work.
To ensure correct operation, you must add the following properties to the index definition node /oak:index/damAssetLucene (no reindexing is required):

"tags": [
    "visualSimilaritySearch"
  ]
"refresh": true
