Filter by a column value

[Sasaa22222]

I have created a document library with a column "validity date" (for example until xxx) and would like to filter by this column "validity date" in my Pnp modern search filter
can anyone help?

1. Find the crawled property which was created for your column (ows_<internal name of column>)
2. Map the crawled property to RefinableStringXX
3. Re-index content with the column
4. Enjoy using RefinableStringXX as a filter

I should probably blog about this, but cover it somewhat in my troubleshooting search book. Might be some other posts on this topic on the web if you look.

thanks a lot. Can i ask where can i do step 3.?
Why doesn't the Combobox or Checkbox show up if i put the column as RefinableStringXX in it?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/crawl-site-content and the UX shows when values are returned.

Thank you. I tried to configure only those with today's or future date in the query template:

RefinableString05>={Today}

what am i making wrong?

Impossible to know what you are doing wrong without looking at the data. There are quiet a few steps you can take to analyze what goes on - steps I covered in a book https://www.techmikael.com/2019/12/troubleshooting-search-in-sharepoint.html.
