Search by keyword generated by user macro

[Vivi_Jiang]

Hello,

I'm working on a space which is named like "ABC1234B01DEF-XYZ" and team members always call it "1234B" for short. and the full name is a project code thus we can't change the naming convention.

By default, confluence search engine will only create search index for "ABC1234B01DEF" but not "1234B". In order to get the short name work, we generated the keyword "1234B" by user macro with regx and expected to search by the keyword.

But we found it doesn't work.

The question is:

1) will the user macro generated text be indexed?

2) any other solution to make the short name searchable?

Thanks!
