Hi @abc1233 

 

1) Knowledge article validity is the date a knowledge article expires. Articles do not appear in search results after the Valid to date or if the Valid to date is blank.

Refer: KB0677239 Contextual search for knowledge articles not working anywhere. Articles past their valid t... 

Validity of a knowledge article 

 

2) Refer KB: KB0790934 Unable to search all knowledge bases in portal. 

3) Regenerate text index  for your new added KB article and check the result

  • Type sys_dictionary.list or navigate to System Definition > Text Indexes.
  • Open the text index entry for kb_knowledge
  • Click Regenerate Text Index to force the system to pick up your new articles
