Configuring Natural Language SearchPDF version

Specifying fields for a dataset in NLS

Cloudera Data Visualization makes it possible to limit Natural Language Search (NLS) to values of specified fields of the dataset.

You can restrict the search for a number of reasons, either from operational considerations, or for security reasons.

  1. Under Fields, specify which fields may be searched through NLS.

    In the example below, most of the fields are selected. If you want to disable search for a specific field in a dataset, simply remove all words and phrases from Matching search terms of that field. In the example below, the terms from Record Count were removed.

  2. Choose an option from the drop-down list under Auto Search Priority.

    Higher priority columns are searched first, then medium, and finally low.

  3. Click SAVE.
