Ontology Search
This topic describe the procedure on how you can use the Ontology search in the Search and Match API.
Ontology search uses the RelatedSkills and RelatedJobProfile for matching unlike the traditional search, which looks for exact matches of the query words.
The taxonomy API is used to get the RelatedSkills and the RelatedJobProfile for the skills in the document. The RelatedSkills and the RelatedJobProfile are then filtered out based on the Skill and JobProfile ontology and used for matching. With this feature, the Search and Match API matches based on both the actual keywords in the query and ontology (RelatedSkills and the RelatedJobProfile) to improve the matched results.
To use the Ontology Search in the API, you need to include ontologyBasedSearch parameter in your API request and set it to True. Refer to the example below for reference:
"ontologyBasedSearch": trueNote:
-
The ontologyBasedSearch parameter can be passed and used in the API request of Match, Match with ID, Match with Multiple Sub-User Ids, and One To One Match.
- The Ontology search feature is currently available only for JD to Resume matching.
- Ontology Search uses the Taxonomy API to find similar skills and job profiles, but for AI-driven matching of similar job profiles, the Semantic Search feature must be used.
Sample Request
Note: The below sample request is for Match API, similarly, you can
pass ontologyBasedSearch in Match with ID, Match with Multiple Sub-User Ids, and
One To One Match.

"indexType": "Resume",
"indexKey": "Use your indexKey",
"subUserId": "Use your subUserId"

},
"ontologyBasedSearch": true,

"explainScore": true,

"explainWeightage": true
}Sample Response
Note: The below sample response is for Match API, similarly, you can
get response for Match with ID, Match with Multiple Sub-User Ids, and
One To One Match.
