When you use FILTER on the Search menu, you can change the default column set items that are displayed as the search filters so you can control the specific set of search results returned for each API Entry Point.

  1. In the Web Client, locate the API Entry Point, and select Show Column Set.

  2. Select the column set, and select Actions > Manage Column Items.

  3. In the Web Search Default column item, set each attribute to True that you want to use as a default filter for that entry point. Any search then includes the attributes in the Search menu criteria by default.

  4. Go to the System Administration feature set, and select the Regenerate Metadata function to refresh the metadata.

  • Only string based properties can be used as the filter defaults, such as Classification or Category.

  • If no column set attributes are set as the search filters, Name is used by the Search menu by default.

  • If there is just one column set attribute set, it is automatically selected in the Search menu as the default.
