how to delete index for a specific page?

Hi Ash,

Out-of-the-box is not available but you can delete it programmatically.

ContentIndexer.Instance.TryDelete(page, out var result);   

And for future index rebuild, you can introduce a field on the page like "DisableForIndex" and exclude it from the index when rebuilding the index

private bool ShouldIndexPageData(SolutionPageData page)
{
            var wastedContent = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<IContentLoader>().GetDescendents(ContentReference.WasteBasket).ToList();

            //Check if the page is published, not marked as disable indexing, etc 
            var shouldIndex = page.CheckPublishedStatus(PagePublishedStatus.Published)
                              && wastedContent.All(c => c.ID != page.PageLink.ID) //content in wastebasket should not be indexed
                              && !page.DisableIndexing;

            //The page should not be indexed, but in some scenarios it might already be indexed, so try to delete it.
            if (!shouldIndex)
             {
                    ContentIndexer.Instance.TryDelete(page, out var result);         
            }

            return shouldIndex;
}

Hello Ravindra,

Thanks for the reply, but i want to delete index for expired pages so where i have to place this "ContentIndexer.Instance.TryDelete(page, out var result);" in code.

Hello Ravindra.

Is this method also works for the deleted pages?

If you want to do this manually, I think the easiest is to install the nuget package EpiCode.InspectInIndex as described here: https://www.gulla.net/inspect-your-episerver-find-index/
