Search Ranking Rules
Available settings:
Search Ranking Rules
Each source has a list of ranking rules that are stored with the index settings. For each search query, Instant Search uses a sorting order to rank documents. The first ranking rule is applied to all documents, while each subsequent rule is applied only to documents that are considered equal according to the previous rule (i.e., as a tiebreaker).
Follow the steps below:
- Once the menu is open, select the Search Input element on the left side, then click the icon on the right side, marked with a red arrow, to access the search ranking rules settings.
- This feature allows users to define the sorting order at query time using a sorting search parameter. In general, sorting is highly useful when you want to let users decide what type of results they want to see first.
Search Field Priority
Available settings:
Search Field Priority
Search field priority is a setting designed to manage searches based on a ranked field order.

Typo Tolerance
Available settings:
Typo Tolerance
By default, this feature allows one typo for query terms with five or more characters and up to two typos for terms with at least nine characters.
For example, if your dataset contains "seven," searching for "sevem" or "sevan" will still match "seven." However, "tow" will not match "two" because it has fewer than five characters.
You can override these default settings using the minWordSizeForTypos object. The code sample below sets the minimum word size for one typo to 4 and for two typos to 10.
Follow the steps below:
- Select the Search Input element on the left side, then click the icon on the right side, marked with a red arrow, to access the Typo Tolerance settings.
