Search results

Unless the search phrase explicitly specifies the type of visual representation, Cloudera Data Visualization displays Natural Language Search results using a type that best matches the number and type of fields included in the search, for every searched dataset.

Cloudera Data Visualization displays the results of a Natural Language search directly in the search modal window.

The main features of the search results are shown in the figure below:

1. Search criteria

   This is identical to your original search. The various components of the search statement show colored highlights. If you move your mouse over these parts of the statement, the tooltip displays the details of the component.

2. Result dataset

   The dataset where a particular search result is found. Note that each search result may represent a different dataset.

3. Result visual

   The search result itself is a visual. Note that Cloudera Data Visualization displays results in a default visual type that best represents the number and type of fields in the search phrase.
