crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.[groupId].cleartext.[urlParameterKey]

Background

Specifies a form parameter for pre-crawl authentication. Form parameters set using this option will be stored within the collection configuration in clear-text and also be visible when viewing the parameter in the administration interface.

This setting should be used to pass any non-sensitive form parameters.

This setting can also be set to a special keyword funnelback_force_blank_value which causes the parameter to be submitted but with an empty value.

There is also an option that can be used to set sensitive values such as passwords. see: crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.[groupId].encrypted.[urlParameterKey]

Configuration parameters for a rule are grouped using a [GROUP_ID] value common across all settings that make up the rule (group ID must be a number).

Setting the key

Set this configuration key in the search package or data source configuration.

Use the configuration key editor to add or edit the crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.[groupId].cleartext.[urlParameterKey] key, and set the value. This can be set to any valid String value.

Default value

None.

Examples
