Understanding categories

Categories represent the data model views available in your project. When you configure categories, you are editing how the views are presented through Search for the end users.
For technical details about how categories map to data model views, see Search integration with data model views.

Configure categories and properties

1

Navigate to Categories

Navigate to the Admin workspace > Project settings > Categories.
2

Configure or select a category

Select Configure > + Add to configure a category or select a category from the list to edit.
Only one configuration per category is allowed per project.
3

Choose settings type

In the Settings panel, select Columns, Filters, or Properties.
Select the properties to appear as default columns when you search. Drag properties to reorder the list. Select to hide properties. Users can override the default settings on the search pages. Keep the number of default columns below 10 to avoid slow performance.
Users can’t interact with any hidden properties.
