I'm using Azure Search and I have an index that has a field named 'keywords', which holds keywords (with type Collection(Edm.String)) related to a single document. I want to be able to use fuzzy search on my documents and as I understood from this link, all I have to do is put a '~' character to the end of my search query. However, this doesn't seem to work in my case.
I have a few documents in my index and one of them includes "fun" in its keywords. When I search for "run" with fuzzy search, I expect to see the documents with keyword "run", as well as "fun". If I know correctly, the edit distance between "fun" and "run" is only 1, which seems to be the default distance Azure Search's fuzzy search uses. Am I doing anything wrong here?
Or does the type Collection(Edm.String) not support fuzzy search? The attributes for 'keywords' are Searchable, Filterable and Retrievable.
Edit: I'm using the Standard Lucene Analyzer for the 'keywords' field. When I send the query
https://fakename.search.windows.net/indexes/fakeindex/docs?api-version=2016-09-01&search=run~
I would expect to get the following document as its keywords contain "fun"
"keywords": [
"balloon",
"message",
"text",
"monster",
"fun",
"evil",
"mad",
"cartoons",
"funny"
]
The fuzzy search feature is only supported in Lucene query syntax in Azure Search. Please specify queryType=full in the query string.
