Description

This cmdlet is used when the search functionality is configured for the first time and to add new crawled properties after the first configuration. SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataCrawledProperty represents a crawled property in the enterprise search metadata property schema. Or, crawled properties are automatically created during regular crawls (see SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataCategory).

For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.

Examples

------------------EXAMPLE------------------

$ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
$cat = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataCategory -SearchApplication $ssa -Identity People
$crawlprop = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataCrawledProperty -SearchApplication $ssa -Category $cat -Limit 1
New-SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataCrawledProperty -SearchApplication $ssa -Name "MyCrawlProp" -PropSet $crawlprop.PropSet -Category $crawlprop.CategoryName -IsNameEnum $false -VariantType $crawlprop.VariantType -IsMappedToContents $false

This example maps the new crawled property MyCrawlProp to the People metadata category for the default search service application. The mapping uses the constraints from the existing People category.

Parameters

-AssignmentCollection

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.
