Steps to index the existing content (Only if you are on a version prior to September release of AEM Guides as a Cloud Service)
Perform the following steps for indexing the existing content and using the new find and replace text at map level:
-
Run a POST request to the server (with correct authentication) -
http://<server:port>/bin/guides/map-find/indexing
.
(Optional: You can pass specific paths of the maps to index them, by default all maps will be indexed || Example :https://<Server:port>/bin/guides/map-find/indexing?paths=<map_path_in_repository>
) -
The API will return a jobId. To check the status of the job, you can send a GET request with job id to the same end point -
http://<server:port>/bin/guides/map-find/indexing?jobId={jobId}
(For example: http://<localhost:8080>/bin/guides/map-find/indexing?jobId=2022/9/15/7/27/7dfa1271-981e-4617-b5a4-c18379f11c42_678) -
Once the job is complete, the above GET request will respond with success and mention if any maps failed. The successfully indexed maps can be confirmed from the server logs.
