Hi, I think I misunderstood your suggestion. Definitely, solr works on documents and I have also put the data in documents. I got confused with "document". I meant we have tried putting JSON data into a text file and then indexed it. I was not taking in the context the document solr works upon.
Sorry for the confusion. What you were saying was right. Thanks for your help.
