For more information about content sources and the new SharePoint Enterprise Search Administration object model, see Content Sources Overview, and Getting Started with the Search Administration Object Model.

Use the ContentSources property of the Content class to get the collection of content source for a Shared Services Provider.

To add a new content source to the collection, use the Create() method of the ContentSourceCollection class.

To delete a content source, use the Delete method of the ContentSource class.

Use an indexer to return a single content source from the ContentSourceCollection object. For example, assuming the collection is assigned to a variable named sspContentSources, use sspContentSources[index] in Microsoft Visual C# or sspContentSources(index) in Microsoft Visual Basic, where index is a string containing the name of the content source or an integer containing the content source identifier.

The following code example writes out the full list of content sources for a Shared Services Provider to the console window.

Prerequisites
