In an approach for a conversational search in a content management system, a processor trains a deep learning model to learn semantic analysis of a plurality of user queries to identify intents and entities in the user queries. A processor analyzes the content management system to extract content keywords to generate a domain ontology. A processor augments the domain ontology based on the identified intents and entities in the user queries by the deep learning model. A processor tags the content keywords with metadata based on the domain ontology. A processor maps the intents and entities extracted from a current user query of a user to the content keywords extracted from the content management system to form a metadata keyword. A processor searches the content management system for a content based on the metadata keyword. A processor returns a search result for the current user query.
