Release Notes

Updates in this release:

* Changed the module version numbering to align better with the SearchQueryTool.
* Updated with latest ADAL authentication code.
* -AuthenticationMethod SPO has been removed. You should use -AuthenticationMethod SPOManagement instead.
* -SPO switch has been removed. You should use -AuthenticationMethod SPOManagement instead.

You can use Connect-Msolservice to login before executing a query. You must still use -AuthenticationMethod SPOManagement,
but you will not be prompted to login again.

New features in this release:

* New ResultProcessor AllProperties.
It will do a secondary search for each result retrieving all properties for that item. They are returned as a dictionary
in the AllProperties property

* New ResultProcessor AllPropertiesInline.
Same as above, but will only retrieve all properties for the first result and return them "inline" in a custom object. Try it, and you will see the difference.
You would typically use this with a query like 'workid:12345'

* Specify -Properties :default:
It will return what SharePoint decides is the default set of properties from SharePoint. Keep in mind that if you don't specify -Properties, PSSQT defaults to title, path, workid.

* Specify default properties by defining the environment variable PSSQT_DefaultSelectProperties
E.g. PSSQT_DefaultSElectProperties = title, author
This is what PSSQT will use if you don't specify -Properties.
Please note that specifying -Properties :default: is different. In that case PSSQT will not specify which properties to retrieve and you get what SharePoint gives you.

* Specify where to look for preset files by specifying the path in the environment variable PSSQT_PresetsPath. You can specify multiple directories separated by ;
E.g. PSSQT_PresetsPath = C:\SearchQueryTool2.8\Presets
You can do this from any folder: Search-SPIndex -Preset mypreset
