Description
What metadata is indexed in the Vega Search Indexes?
Answer
Everything Search Index
NOTE: Vega strips from both indexing and searching the following special characters: !@#$%^*()_+-=;:,./<>?`~[]{}\|"
Exceptions are:
- Apostrophes in the middle of words: O'Connor is indexed as both o'connor and oconnor.
- Ampersand is converted to the word "and".
- Diacritics: “LeCarré” can be found with both “LeCarre” or “LeCarré”
- Phrases enclosed in double quotes are searched as a phrase; the phrase inside the double quotes is stripped of special characters.
