Shared Platform Attributes
This is a list of shared attributes common to all search platforms.
Where applicable, default values are given, for example, the default value for the spellcheck attribute is set to true. An indication is also given of where these attributes can be applied. For example, some attributes can be applied either in the JSP tag or a configuration file (for example, gsa.conf). Other attributes can only be applied in the JSP tag or in the configuration file.
On some platforms, the values following Applied in: might not be exactly the same as those shown below. For confirmation, also refer to the list of standard attributes specified on that platform page.
Attributes shared across platforms

The URI of the platform. Must be specified using the full URI (for example, http://localhost:1234; localhost:1234 will not work).
name (java.lang.String)
The display name of this Platform instance. Used for identifying different platforms in the user interface.
aliases (java.lang.String)
Manage mappings from field names to aliases (use a comma-separated list). All references to the field (via this platform) in results, facets, filters, and query strings are mapped. For example, to refer to a field in the index named firstnamelastname as name and countryofresidence as country, use these mappings: aliases="firstnamelastname=name,countryofresidence=country"

Default: true

Default: true
autoCorrect (java.lang.Boolean)
