Trying to search for lines of social security and credit card info that have not been redacted.
The search syntax for a document that does contain redactions is {LF:AnnType=“R”}, so you could use the NOT operator to combine this with a search that returns all the documents you want to check for redactions. For example, if all the documents you are concerned with have the same template applied, your search would look something like this:
{[Accounting]} - {LF:AnnType = "R"}
If you wanted to combine multiple search terms to return the set of documents you want to check for redactions, make sure you enclose them all in a set of parenthesis, like so:
({[Accounting]} & {LF:modified >= "7-14-2014"}) - {LF:AnnType = "R"}
See the help files on advanced search and the advance search syntax white paper for more information on performing searches using the search syntax.
I created a "redactions" user, which has not been assigned the "see through redactions" right, and use it to search terms which should be redacted prior to release in an FOI request. If there are search hits for specific terms, then I've missed something. You could probably do something similar and use advanced search syntax for ss and c/c number formats - only numbers which have not been redacted will be returned in the search hits.
I just figured out that I can enter {LF:AnnType=Redaction} and it worked.
I tried this, but got an Error "An unrecognized character was encountered. [9085:0xc004237d]". Is there a way to search redactions in Laserfiche Version 8.2?
