Hi,

Yes, you can do the search based on the specific column.  You need to follow these steps

  • Create a Managed Property in the Search Schema based on the document column
  • Run the full crawl
  • You can search the specific Managed Property in the search box as follows, for example for search documents only you can type in the search box

IsDocument:1

It will results all documents.

Please refer to the following article about Managed Properties

Please don't forget to mark it answered, if your problem resolved or helpful.
