Can I search and match documents indexed on particular date range?

Yes, RChilli provides the capability to search and match documents indexed within a particular date range by utilizing the Search & Match API. Here’s a detailed overview of how this functionality works:

Search by Date Range – Key Capability

RChilli’s Search & Match Engine 3.0 includes advanced filtering mechanisms that support faceting and date-based filters. When documents (resumes or job descriptions) are indexed, metadata such as the date of indexing or document creation can be used to narrow search results.

This is especially useful for:

• Filtering candidates added within a specific hiring period.

• Revalidating matched documents over time.

• Reporting and analytics use-cases involving time-based slices.

How to Use Date Range in Search Queries

To execute a search within a specific date range, use the date field filter in your search request payload.

Example JSON snippet for date range filtering:

{
"searchType": "simple",
"query": "Java Developer",
"filters": {
"date": {
"from": "2025-01-01",
"to": "2025-03-31"
}
}
}

If you’re using the Search & Match API, this will return only those documents that were indexed between January 1, 2025, and March 31, 2025.

You can combine this with other filters like location, skills, experience, etc., to make highly specific and context-aware queries.

Important Considerations

• Ensure all documents are properly indexed with correct timestamps. If the date field is missing or incorrectly formatted during indexing, the filter won’t apply correctly.

• Date filters work with ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD).

• Use Parse and Index API to simultaneously parse and index resumes to enable search capabilities.
