If you want to direct users to a specific Document Type to perform a full-text search on, you can configure the front-end client to automatically select a Document Type. The Document Type is specified as a static value in obpa-config.json.

Tip:

Document Types are represented by ID numbers. You can view the ID number for a Document Type in the Configuration module by selecting it in the Document Types dialog box.

To configure the automatic selection of a Document Type for full-text searches, set the value of the selectedDocTypeId key in the searchPanel object to the ID number of the Document Type. For example:

"selectedDocTypeId": 123
