Syntax

Default (Default)

Set-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormatState
    [-Identity] <DocumentParserFileFormatStatePipeBind>
    [-Enable] <Boolean>
    -SearchApplication <SearchServiceApplicationPipeBind>
    [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>]
    [-Confirm]
    [-WhatIf]
    [-UseIFilter <Boolean>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Set-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormatState cmdlet sets the activation state of the parser that corresponds to the specified file format. By default, the initial activation state of all file formats is $TRUE (enabled). Use this cmdlet to temporarily disable a malfunctioning parser. The system will only consider the change after a restart of the content processing components.

For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.

Examples

EXAMPLE

$ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormatState -SearchApplication $ssa -Identity PDF -Enable $false

This example uses the Set-SPEnterpriseSearchFileFormatState cmdlet to disable the parser for the file format "PDF".

Parameters

-AssignmentCollection

Applicable: SharePoint Server 2013, SharePoint Server 2016, SharePoint Server 2019

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.
