URL or Hyperlink Search in SharePoint 2013

Hi,

I am using a URL / Hyperlink type field in sharepoint 2013 list. When I search the full URL, it returns the result, but when i search the partial URL with * , it gives a very random behavior.

e.g.

If your url is somethnig like

"https://abc.xyz.in/123/abc/dummy.pdf"

then searching "https://abc.xyz.i*" gives you result but as soon as you search "https://abc.xyz.in*" it does not give you result.
In some cases if i remove the word "https://" and then search, it gives the result.

And very interestingly if I replace single dot with double dot in domain name then it gives the result
e.g. https://abc..xyz..in* => this gives the result back.

I am interested to know does Microsoft supports partial URL search?

Hi @HarshSaini-2912,

Per my research, SharePoint support partial URL search. With this article: Keyword Query Language (KQL) syntax reference It will help you better understand and manage your search query and construct KQL queries for Search in SharePoint. This syntax reference describes KQL query elements and how to use property restrictions and operators in KQL queries.

For Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/general-development/keyword-query-language-kql-syntax-reference

Unfortunately it doesn't solve the issue.... the article does not tell about URL search.

Hi @HarshSaini-2912,

This articel is about keyword search, like you said you can get result with "https://abc..xyz..in*". From this articel It's because ".." Returns search results where the property value falls within the range specified in the property restriction. For example, the range A..B represents a set of values from A to B where both A and B are inclusive. For date ranges this means from the beginning of day A to the end of day B.
