Description

This cmdlet updates properties of a user-created result source. This cmdlet supports the same update operations as are supported through the "Manage Result Sources" page in Central Administration. The result source cannot be a built-in source (a built-in source has the BuiltIn property set to true) for any update operation other than changing the default result source using the MakeDefault parameter. For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.

Examples

--------------------EXAMPLE 1---------------------

$ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
$owner = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchOwner -Level SSA
$customResultSource = New-SPEnterpriseSearchResultSource -SearchApplication $ssa -Owner $owner -ProviderId fa947043-6046-4f97-9714-40d4c113963d -Name "Custom SharePoint Result Source"
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchResultSource -Identity $customResultSource -Name "Basic SharePoint Result Source"

This example updates the name of the result source and the identity of the result source is specified as a result source instance. SearchApplication and Owner are not required for this update operation.

--------------------EXAMPLE 2---------------------

$ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
$owner = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchOwner -Level SSA
$customResultSource = New-SPEnterpriseSearchResultSource -SearchApplication $ssa -Owner $owner -ProviderId fa947043-6046-4f97-9714-40d4c113963d -Name "Custom SharePoint Result Source"
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchResultSource -SearchApplication $ssa -Owner $owner -Identity "Custom SharePoint Result Source" -Description "A custom SharePoint Result Source for demonstration purposes"

This example updates the description of the result source and the identity of the result source is specified by name.

Parameters

-AssignmentCollection

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.

Type:SPAssignmentCollection

-AuthenticationType

Specifies an authentication type for the result source. If parameter is not specified, the value is unchanged.

A specific set of authentication types are supported for each search provider type and if parameter is not specified, the authentication type will default based on search provider type.

This cmdlet supports the following set of authentication mechanisms and corresponding types: Default SharePoint Authentication (FederationAuthType.LocalNTAuth), Basic Authentication (FederationAuthType.SingleAccountBasicAuth - specify UserName and Password), Default Remote SharePoint Authentication (FederationAuthType.PerUserBasicAuth), Single Sign On (FederationAuthType.SSO - requires SsoId to be specified), Anonymous (FederationAuthType.Anonymous), Digest Authentication (FederationAuthType.SingleAccountDigest - specify UserName and Password), NTLM Application Pool Identity (FederationAuthType.ApplicationPoolIdentity), NTLM User Name and Password (FederationAuthType.SingleAccountNTLM - specify UserName and Password).

When using a Local SharePoint Search/Local SharePoint People Search provider, then FederationAuthType.LocalNTAuth (default) and FederationAuthType.SingleAccountBasicAuth are supported.

When using a Remote SharePoint Search/Remote SharePoint People Search provider, then FederationAuthType.PerUserBasicAuth (default) and FederationAuthType.SSO are supported.

When using OpenSearch 1.0/1.1 search provider, then the following authentication types are supported: FederationAuthType.Anonymous (default), FederationAuthType.SingleAccountBasicAuth, FederationAuthType.SingleAccountDigest, FederationAuthType.SingleAccountNTLM, and FederationAuthType.ApplicationPoolIdentity.

All authentication types are listed in the enum FederationAuthType.

Setting value to false ($false) states that the result source should not be set as default and in this case, if the result source to update is currently the default, the original default result source ("Local SharePoint Results") will be set as default again.

Tip: Use instance, not name or GUID string Id, as Identity when using Makedefault, to clearly specify that Owner is only to be used for specifying the level where the result source should be set as default (if value is true) or where the default should be reset to original (if value is false).
