    Create Multi-Map Index

    • A Multi-Map index allows to index data from multiple different collections.

    • RavenDB will generate a single Multi-Map index.
      The results of querying the Multi-Map index will include data from all these collections.

    • Multi-Map indexes require that all the Map functions defined have the same output structure.

    • In this page:

    Creating Multi-Map index

    Define a Map Function:
    Figure 1. Initial Map Function

    The Collection field indexed in the above example is not mandatory but can be useful upon querying.


    Add another Map Function:
    Figure 2. Add Another Map Function

    • Any number of additional Map functions can be added.

    • Each added Map should have the same output fields.
      i.e. In the above example, the common indexed fields are: Name & Collection.

    • So when querying on this Multi-Map index, results will come from both Employees collection and Companies collection.

    • Index field options, Configuration & Additional Sources can be defined for the Multi-Map index in the same way as done for a Simple Map Index.
