Facets

Facet is a list of values with the count of documents in which these values are found. Facets are displayed on the left side of the page while searching for Resume's and JD's.

The Facet is an optional parameter (query) that can be passed in the API request of Simple Search, Boolean Search, Free Text Search, Match, Match with ID, and Match with Multiple Sub-User Ids. Once Facet is passed in the request parameter of Simple Search and Boolean Search, it will return the list of values with the count of documents in which these values are found.

Facet displays the result as follows:
  • Fields: This is displayed as an array (ordered series) of fields as a result of facets.
  • Limit: No. of values returns in a facet is 10 by default.
