Can I change role's searchable/default index by App?

[melonman]

Hi,

I would like to set srchIndexesDefault to specific index by app currently users are using.

For example, admin role is configured so searchable indexes = * and _*, and default index searched = main.
If admin uses a tutorial app, I want to automatically change as follows using authorize.conf.

-- authorize.conf in tutorialappdir/default

[role_admin]
srchIndexesAllowed = *
srchIndexesDefault = tutorial

But I am still getting data in main index in my tutorial apps.

Can I change role's searchable/default index by App?

Thank you,

One thing I've done is to have a view (shared from some other app) use a macro like get_my_index for its index= clause. Then, an app provides a macros.conf to provide the "local" version of that macro, so that the same view can refer to different indexes, depending upon which app scope the user is viewing it from.

This question looks at how you'd set the default search index on a per app basis, which might help with what you're trying to do. It also refers to the *NIX app as a good example of editing the views to have a default index.

Thanks dart!

There is a same question previously posted. So to set the default search index for a particular app, I actually have to change the XML to embed index=XXX code.

It would be great if I could control using authorize.conf...
