SPOSearchManagedProperty

Parameters

Parameter	Attribute	DataType	Description	Allowed Values
Name	Key	String	The Name of the Managed Property
Type	Key	String	The Type of the Managed Property	Text, Integer, Decimal, DateTime, YesNo, Double, Binary
Description	Write	String	Description of the Managed Property
Searchable	Write	Boolean	Enables querying against the content of the managed property. The content of this managed property is included in the full-text index. For example, if the property is 'author', a simple query for 'Smith' returns items containing the word 'Smith' and items whose author property contains 'Smith'.
FullTextIndex	Write	String	Defines which full-text index the Managed Property is stored in.
FullTextContext	Write	UInt32	Defines the context of a managed property within its full-text index.
Queryable	Write	Boolean	Enables querying against the specific Managed Property. The Managed Property field name must be included in the query, either specified in the query itself or included in the query programmatically. If the Managed Property is 'author', the query must contain 'author:Smith'.
Retrievable	Write	Boolean	Enables the content of this managed property to be returned in search results. Enable this setting for managed properties that are relevant to present in search results.
AllowMultipleValues	Write	Boolean	Allow multiple values of the same type in this managed property. For example, if this is the 'author' managed property, and a document has multiple authors, each author name will be stored as a separate value in this managed property.
Refinable	Write	String	Yes: Enables using the property as a refiner for search results in the front end. You must manually configure the refiner in the web part. Yes - latent: Enables switching refinable to active later, without having to do a full re-crawl when you switch. Both options require a full crawl to take effect.	No, Yes - latent, Yes
Sortable	Write	String	Yes: Enables sorting the result set based on the property before the result set is returned. Use for example for large result sets that cannot be sorted and retrieved at the same time. Yes - latent: Enables switching sortable to active later, without having to do a full re-crawl when you switch. Both options require a full crawl to take effect.	No, Yes - latent, Yes
Safe	Write	Boolean	Enables this managed property to be returned for queries executed by anonymous users. Enable this setting for managed properties that do not contain sensitive information and are appropriate for anonymous users to view.
Aliases	Write	StringArray[]	Define an alias for a managed property if you want to use the alias instead of the managed property name in queries and in search results. Use the original managed property and not the alias to map to a crawled property. Use an alias if you don't want to or don't have permission to create a new managed property.
TokenNormalization	Write	Boolean	Enable to return results independent of letter casing and diacritics(for example accented characters) used in the query.
CompleteMatching	Write	Boolean	By default, search returns partial matches between queries against this managed property and its content. Select Complete Matching for search to return exact matches instead. If a managed property 'Title' contains 'Contoso Sites', only the query Title: 'Contoso Sites' will give a result.
LanguageNeutralTokenization	Write	Boolean	By default, search depends on language when it breaks queries and content into parts (tokenization). Select language neutral tokenization if you have multilingual content and this managed property contains tags that are based on metadata term sets or other identifiers.
FinerQueryTokenization	Write	Boolean	By default, search tokenizes queries coarser than content. If a managed property 'ID' contains the string '1-23-456#7', and you query ID:'1-23', you might not get a partial match because search didn't break the query into small enough parts. Consider selecting finer query tokenization if the content of this managed property contains separators such as dots and dashes. Finer query tokenization makes queries against this managed property slower.
MappedCrawledProperties	Write	StringArray[]	Names of the crawled properties that are mapped to this managed property
CompanyNameExtraction	Write	Boolean	Enables the system to extract company name entities from the managed property when crawling new or updated items. Afterwards, the extracted entities can be used to set up refiners in the web part.
Ensure	Write	String	Present ensures the Search Managed Property exists.	Present
Credential	Write	PSCredential	Credentials of the account to authenticate with.
ApplicationId	Write	String	Id of the Azure Active Directory application to authenticate with.
ApplicationSecret	Write	PSCredential	Secret of the Azure Active Directory application to authenticate with.
TenantId	Write	String	Name of the Azure Active Directory tenant used for authentication. Format contoso.onmicrosoft.com
CertificatePassword	Write	PSCredential	Username can be made up to anything but password will be used for certificatePassword
CertificatePath	Write	String	Path to certificate used in service principal usually a PFX file.
CertificateThumbprint	Write	String	Thumbprint of the Azure Active Directory application's authentication certificate to use for authentication.
ManagedIdentity	Write	Boolean	Managed ID being used for authentication.
