Add composite applications to portal search collections
Add composite applications to portal search collections to enable the searching of content in application pages and portlets.
Before you begin, understand the capabilities provided by Portal Search and create at least one search collection. Consider creating a search collection specifically for the composite applications running on one portal site.
To add the pages and portlets of composite applications to a portal search collection, follow the procedure for customizing a search collection for secured portal pages. The content of a composite application comprises the application, its pages, and the portlets on each page. The application, its pages, and its portlets must be accessible to the user that you create to be the content crawler of the search collection. Therefore, be certain that the content crawler user is assigned an application role that permits the appropriate level of access to the pages and portlets of the composite applications that you include in the portal search collection. Portal search results will vary according to the application roles assigned to the content crawlers that you create for each search collection.
