GSA Search - query syntax

I am trying to create a query for GSA Search:

The query suppose to bring all the results that exclude some texts inside meta tag, some thing like:

inmeta:Education -first and -second and -courses...

But no luck with that. Is anybody knows what the right syntax is?

Solution

  • I have used the equal to condition before and the query looks like this - 

    (inmeta:education=first OR inmeta:education=second)

    If your results must not include all the pages with the meta tag Education not equal to the value first then use - 

    inmeta:Education-first

    For multiple values you can use the OR condition - 

    (inmeta:Education-first OR inmeta:Education-second)

    You can find a lot more information here - https://developers.google.com/search-appliance/documentation/46/xml_reference#request_query_terms

    Hope this helps you.
