MSO - Search

Data Source Name

The Data Source Name dropdown allows user to select the database name from where the data is retrieved.

Index Name

The Index Name dropdown allows user to select the name of the index name.

Use JSON

Enable this property to allow the configuration of remaining properties to be done by typing or pasting in a JSON file into the JSON property. If some remaining properties have already been entered, user will be prompted to confirm to overwrite.

Shards

The shard is the unit at which Elasticsearch distributes data around the cluster. The speed at which Elasticsearch can move shards around when rebalancing data, e.g. following a failure, will depend on the size and number of shards as well as network and disk performance.

Replicas

A replica shard is a copy of a primary shard. Replicas provide redundant copies of your data to protect against hardware failure and increase capacity to serve read requests like searching or retrieving a document.

Refresh (Seconds)

By default, Elasticsearch periodically refreshes indices every second, but only on indices that have received one search request or more in the last 30 seconds.

Analyzer

The Analyzer parameter specifies the analyzer used for text analysis when indexing or searching a text field. Unless overridden with the Search Analyzer mapping parameter, this analyzer is used for both index and search analysis. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/specify-analyzer.html. Available for String Data Types only.

Search Analyzer

Usually, the same analyzer should be applied at index time and at search time, to ensure that the terms in the query are in the same format as the terms in the inverted index. Sometimes, though, it can make sense to use a different analyzer at search time, such as when using the edge_ngram tokenizer for autocomplete or when using search-time synonyms. By default, queries will use the analyzer defined in the Analyzer property, but this can be overridden with the Search Analyzer. Available for String Data Types only.

Quote Analyzer

The Quote Analyzer (or Search Quote Analyzer) setting allows you to specify an analyzer for phrases, this is particularly useful when dealing with disabling stop words for phrase queries. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/analyzer.html#search-quote-analyzer Available for String Data Types only.

Term Vector

Term vectors contain information about the terms produced by the analysis process, including:

• a list of terms

• the position (or order) of each term

• the start and end character offsets mapping the term to its origin in the original string

• payloads (if they are available) — user-defined binary data associated with each term position.

Available for String Data Types only.
