Using Hue with Cloudera Search

Hue includes a search application that provides a customizable UI. Using Hue with Cloudera Search involves importing collections. After you import collections, you can work with them through the Hue user interface.

You can create a new search using the Hue Web UI. For example, for the server myserver.example.com, use: http://myserver.example.com:8888/search/new_search.
