Search Datasets

Note

You can disable Search Datasets and File Search to save costs, but you have to contact an administrator to disable them.

Amorphic enables you to search any query within the dataset and metadata files using the search dataset feature in the Catalog section. You can also sort and filter the results based on different attributes.

Some departments or user groups may have access to certain datasets. You can check which datasets you have access to, as well as request access to a dataset you do not have access to.

You can type "*" in the search bar to get a list of all datasets, both accessible and non-accessible, in the account.

Customized Dataset Search (API Only)

Datasets search now has been enhanced to allow users to query (from) datasets that you have access (owner or read-only) to. To use it, following parameters have to be passed to API.

Resource Path: /datasets/search
HTTP Method: GET
Query String Parameters: searchDatasets=user

Note

Other Query String Parameters like sortby, sortorder, limit etc., can be passed on along with searchDatasets.

For a multi-tenancy deployment, dataset search works a little differently. Since each tenant's data is isolated and remains invisible to other tenants, Amorphic dataset search only returns the datasets which are part of user-accessible tenants.

For example, if user "UserA" has access to the "testorg1" and "testorg2" tenants and is searching for datasets, the search results would only display the datasets which are created under domains which are part of the "testorg1" or "testorg2" tenants.

Repair Search Metadata (API Only)

This option provides user ability to repair search metadata that is stored in the ES cluster.

Resource Path: /opensearchindex/operations
HTTP Method: PUT
Request Payload:
{
    "IndexAction": <string> (recreate, delete, create)
}

User can perform below three actions:

• recreate: Deletes and recreates index
• delete: Deletes index
• create: Creates index
