You cannot directly do this with the ExtractingRequestHandler. One possibility is to use the DataImportHandler, with XPathEntityProcessor or FileListEntityProcessor to get the filename, and then use TikaEntityProcessor to actually process the file. Please see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler and the various sections within it. Regards, Gora
