SharePoint list items with search fields - move / copy to another site collection

Question

Here is the script. Our user archives of SharePoint jobs (based on ceratin crteria) and copy / move items to another site collection. In this case, if the list item has some search fields, how to save them when copying / mpve to another site collection?

Thank you Durga

Answer 1

The internal name of the search field must remain unchanged, and as long as the list referenced by the search field uses the same values ​​(the identifier may be different, just match the value and create a new SPFIeldLookupValue), there is no problem copying metadata based on the internal field names and everything should go well, we do the same for archiving news and documents using timerjobs.

Answer 2

you cannot "copy" a field from sitecoll A to sitecoll B, you need to recreate it. The usual way to do this is to actually use a function that creates the search field, but this is not the case that I assume (should have been done at the beginning, in the future I suggest how you create the fields, seeing how this method is reused).

, SPSite- b sitecoll , field.SchemaXml, , sitecoll b. AddFieldAsXml SPSite.Fields, , InternalName .

CHeck, :

 using(SPSite targetSite = new SPSite("urloftargetsite"))
 {
   using(SPWeb targetWeb = sourceSite.OpenWeb())
   {
     if(!targetWeb.Fields.ContainsField(originalField.InternalName))
     {
        targetWeb.Fields.AddFieldAsXml("caml string here");
     }
   }
 }
