No hit on indexed field using unified search

Hi,

I have a field CaseNumber that is indexed but I can't get any hits on the field when I search using unified search. The number is present 4 times in the indexed content, as CaseNumber

"CaseNumber$$string": "2015/12345-6"

and CaseNumber within SearchMetadata

"CaseNumber": {
            "StringValue$$string": "2015/12345-6".

I have tested this using this code:

var result = SearchClient.Instance.UnifiedSearch().For(q).GetResult();

Anyone got an idea why?

Which values have you tested for "q". Do you get an exact match searching with "-chars around the phrase?

"2015/12345-6"

No, that gives no hits.

But I added the casenumber to SearchSummary and now I get hits on the number, but the excerpt is blank in these hits. anyone know why that happen?

As a test, can you try wrapping the search text in quotes?

Something like:

SearchClient.Instance.UnifiedSearch().For(\"2015/12345-6\"").GetResult();

The solution for this was to add the casenumber to the property SearchSummary. I can search on the whole number but not parts of it.
