use walk, walkdoc or walkdocordered functionality in the query builder

[mrump]

this is a refernce to acrticle CS88090

It is possible to add the walkDocOrdered function to a query via command line:

• im createquery --querydefinition="(walkdocordered[document id])" --name="query name"

This should be supported in the query builder gui as well

It would be perfect if the document id must not be static, but could be defined by a "sub-query" as well.

The reverse operation would be useful as well. Finding the documents that a queried set of contents belong to.

[mrump]

By "reverse operation" you wish to see not only the containing Document ID , but all Documents that might use this one as include/inserted, RIGHT?

I like that but technically it would still be a "walk" operation, only using different Relationship fields (Contained By & Referenced By).

So in IMHO you use case would be covered implicitly.

This functionality has been introduced in the 12.x series, some of the Ideas have had a status reset - correcting them.

The feature is an admin-only function and there is no plan to introduce this to end-users.

Thanks

@KartikOak  I've seen it and I liked it so far, but could you elaborate on why there is  no plan to introduce this to end-users?

[KartikOak]

This query that gets designed with this feature is likely to be performance intensive if not designed correctly and hence it is out of bounds for end users.
