Google Search Appliance: Search Protocol Reference Request Format 49
6. An inmeta search is unable to search by multiple keywords or perform phrase searches.
For example, consider the following meta tags:
<meta name="department" content="Human Resources">
<meta name="department" content="Finance">
The following query does not work correctly:
checks inmeta:department=Human+Resources+OR+checks inmeta:department=Finance
Instead, use multiple inmeta query terms, for example:
inmeta:department~Human OR inmeta:department~Finance
7. Special characters in metadata names must be escaped for use in inmeta.
For example, to match metadata tag <meta name="s.pos" content="orange" /> , the following
query will not work:
inmeta:s.pos~orange
You must use the following query, in which the special character is escaped:
inmeta: s%2Epos~orange
8. An inmeta search of meta text with special characters, such as “.” and using the operator “~” doesn’t
work, but using operator “=” with the full meta text does work.
9. When using daterange or inmeta queries, spelling suggestions are not returned.
To view spelling suggestions, use the requiredfields parameter instead of inmeta.
10. When the search appliance indexes a Microsoft Office 2007 Word document, the following
metadata in meta tags becomes available for inmeta search queries:
<meta name="Author" content="Polly Hedra"></meta>
<meta name="Keywords" content="Resume"></meta>
