BREAKING: Azure Search has rolled out a new update recently which prevents Indexer field mappings from being persisted before the fields in the index.

ISSUE:

  • https://github.com/SDKits/ExamineX/issues/120
  • Existing sites will remain operational, however any time a new field that is not explicitly defined/declared is attempted to be indexed, indexing will fail.
  • Azure support has been contacted regarding this regression but they cannot rollback/rollforward a fix.

ACTION: ExamineX update is required. We’ve shipped new versions for all major releases:

This is an unfortunate breaking change in the Azure Search APIs but we’ve tried hard to have this resolved in a timely manner. We appologize for any inconvenience but the upgrade path should be very quick and straightforward.

Happy Searching!
