Using Federated Search, we can search for content outside Salesforce. Federated Search utilizes Open Search Document <\/strong>behind the scene. Open Search<\/a> was coined by Jeff Bezos (CEO – Amazon) in March 2005. <\/strong>Open Search is a collection of technologies & standards that allows publishing of results to be utilized by Search Engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Demo purpose, I have enabled my website compatible with Open Search at below URL <\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/www.jitendrazaa.com\/blog\/wp-json\/opensearch\/1.1\/document<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Step 1 : <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Add External Data Source by clicking New External Data Source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Provide any suitable name – in this case Jitendra’s Blog<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Select Federated Search : OpenSearch as Type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Provide this path for OSD (Open Search Document)<\/strong> file format – https:\/\/www.jitendrazaa.com\/blog\/wp-json\/opensearch\/1.1\/document<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click on Validate and Sync.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2 :<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Create permission set giving permission to view this External Object<\/strong> and all fields. Assign this permission set to anyone who needs to use search for content outside Salesforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can also enable this federated search in Communities by updating global Search Component and giving community members access to this newly created permission set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once above setup is completed – you can search for any term on global search and select External Results <\/strong>as shown in below image :<\/p>\n\n\n\n
