SharePoint Online: Add an boolean refiner to classical search
Hi all, we've implemented an boolean archive flag that marks archived files with yes. Now I want to add a refiner to classical search to show: - not archived - archived - both Files. My pro...
Ingrid SchieleAFAIK SharePoint boolean or Yes/No fields cannot hold empty values. During column creation you always have to set a default value . Could you check what is the default value for that column, maybe its already set to NO?
Only scenario for empty values can be if the yes/no field was added to the list at a later point of time and then the existing items will have empty values. Is that the case here?
- Thanks for reply, unnie. Sorry for the late response. I didn't receive a message that theres a reply for my post.
Yes, the field was added to library at a later point of time.
That means if I want to use this Refiner I have to update all existant files?
I don't want to do that because the files becomed modified and the user are confused why. They're just interested in changes of file content not Metadata :-).
Is there a way to change the metadata without effect on the modify date?
Regards
Ingrid
