Add Document to Azure Search Service (Java)

Advance preparation

• Create an Index
• Define fields

code

package hello.azure;

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

			if (entity != null) {
				System.out.println(EntityUtils.toString(entity));
			}

		} catch (Exception e) {
			System.out.println(e.getMessage());
		}
	}

}

result

{
"@odata.context":"https://yyy.search.windows.net/indexes('zzz')/$metadata#Collection(Microsoft.Azure.Search.V2019_05_06.IndexResult)",
"value":[
 {"key":"001","status":true,"errorMessage":null,"statusCode":200}
]
}

Verification

You can also try queries against the index from the admin console.
