I have create a custom skill for my Azure Cognitive Service. After creating the datasouce, index, indexer and running the indexer I can see that my function is being called and it is outputting the correct information, but when I search the index the field that is connected to the custom skill is empty.

This is my indexer definition:

{
  "name": "idxdocs",
  "description": null,
  "dataSourceName": "dsdocs",
  "skillsetName": "skillset-procuradores",
  "targetIndexName": "customer-documents",
  "disabled": null,
  "schedule": null,
  "parameters": {
    "batchSize": null,
    "maxFailedItems": -1,
    "maxFailedItemsPerBatch": null,
    "base64EncodeKeys": null,
    "configuration": {
      "indexedFileNameExtensions": ".pdf,.docx,.doc",
      "dataToExtract": "contentAndMetadata",
      "failOnUnprocessableDocument": false,
      "failOnUnsupportedContentType": false,
      "indexStorageMetadataOnlyForOversizedDocuments": true,
      "allowSkillsetToReadFileData": true
    }
  },
  "fieldMappings": [],
  "outputFieldMappings": [
    {
      "sourceFieldName": "/document/content/procuradores",
      "targetFieldName": "procuradores"
    }
  ],
  "cache": null,
  "encryptionKey": null
}

This is my index:

{
  "name": "customer-documents",
  "fields": [
    {
      "name": "key",
      "type": "Edm.String",
      "facetable": true,
      "filterable": true,
      "key": true,
      "retrievable": true,
      "searchable": false,
      "sortable": true,
      "analyzer": null,
      "indexAnalyzer": null,
      "searchAnalyzer": null,
      "synonymMaps": [],
      "fields": []
    },
    {
      "name": "content",
      "type": "Edm.String",
      "facetable": false,
      "filterable": false,
      "key": false,
      "retrievable": true,
      "searchable": true,
      "sortable": false,
      "analyzer": "es.lucene",
      "indexAnalyzer": null,
      "searchAnalyzer": null,
      "synonymMaps": [],
      "fields": []
    },
    {
      "name": "procuradores",
      "type": "Edm.String",
      "facetable": false,
      "filterable": true,
      "key": false,
      "retrievable": true,
      "searchable": false,
      "sortable": false,
      "analyzer": null,
      "indexAnalyzer": null,
      "searchAnalyzer": null,
      "synonymMaps": [],
      "fields": []
    }
  ],
  "suggesters": [],
  "scoringProfiles": [],
  "defaultScoringProfile": null,
  "corsOptions": null,
  "analyzers": [],
  "charFilters": [],
  "tokenFilters": [],
  "tokenizers": [],
  "similarity": {
    "@odata.type": "#Microsoft.Azure.Search.BM25Similarity",
    "k1": null,
    "b": null
  },
  "encryptionKey": null,
  "@odata.etag": "\"0x8D98BC85E9F6996\""
}

My skill set definition:

{
  "name": "skillset-procuradores",
  "description": "",
  "skills": [
    {
      "@odata.type": "#Microsoft.Skills.Custom.WebApiSkill",
      "name": "procuradores",
      "description": "",
      "context": "/document",
      "uri": "my url ommited for secure reasons",
      "httpMethod": "POST",
      "timeout": "PT3M50S",
      "batchSize": 1,
      "degreeOfParallelism": null,
      "inputs": [
        {
          "name": "text",
          "source": "/document/content"
        }
      ],
      "outputs": [
        {
          "name": "procuradores",
          "targetName": "procuradores"
        }
      ],
      "httpHeaders": {}
    }
  ],
  "cognitiveServices": null,
  "knowledgeStore": null,
  "encryptionKey": null
} 

And finally my function output:

{
    "values": [
        {
            "recordId": "1",
            "data": {
                "procuradores": "people's names"
            }
        }
    ]
}

What am I missing?

Rafael, can you give debug sessions a try? I suspect there is something happening in your custom skill that means the data is not coming back. By using this, you can test the actual input and output.

CodePudding user response：

This is just a hunch, but in the indexer definition, try changing your output field mapping sourceFieldName from "/document/content/procuradores" to "/document/procuradores". The context that you are giving in the skill is just "/document" so it should append the output onto that.
