Extract Additional Metadata

After viewing the IDX file created by CFS, you can customize the configuration of the connector. You might want to extract additional metadata for indexing into IDOL Server.

To extract additional metadata

  1. Stop the connector (see Stop the Connector).
  2. Add additional parameters to your fetch task. For example:

    ExtractFields A comma-separated list of MAPI properties to extract from each message.
    ExtractFieldNames A comma-separated list of field names. The MAPI properties extracted by ExtractFields are written into these fields.
    ExtractAttachmentsFields A comma-separated list of metadata fields to extract from the attachments table of each message.
    ExtractAttachmentsFieldNames A comma-separated list of field names. The properties extracted by ExtractAttachmentFields are written into these fields.
    [MyTask]
    ...
    ExtractFields=0x0E080003,0x00170003
    ExtractFieldNames=MessageSize,Importance
    ExtractAttachmentsFields=0x3704001E
    ExtractAttachmentsFieldNames=AttachmentName

    For a complete list of configuration parameters that you can use, refer to the Exchange Connector Reference.

  3. Start the connector (see Start the Connector).

  4. View the IDX file created by CFS to check that the additional metadata has been extracted correctly (see View the Data in the IDX file).

NOTE:

You can also use a Lua script to process the documents that are created. For information about using Lua Scripts, see Run Lua Scripts.
