Excluding fields
This topic describes how to exclude public properties on indexed objects in Optimizely Search & Navigation.
How it works
By default, all public properties on an object are included when indexing it. The simplest way to exclude a property is to annotate it with the JsonIgnore attribute in the Newtonsoft.Json namespace.
Example
using Newtonsoft.Json;
public class User
{
public string Username { get; set; }
[JsonIgnore]
public string Password { get; set; }
}
You also can exclude properties, or other previously included fields, by customizing the Client conventions.
//using EPiServer.Find.ClientConventions;
client.Conventions
.ForInstancesOf<User>()
.ExcludeField(x => x.Password);
The above code excludes the Password property from instances of the User class as well as instances of classes that inherit the User class.
