Rules Editor
The Rules Editor allows you to view, edit, create, approve, enable, and publish rules powered by Fusion. Access the Rules Editor from the Fusion UI by navigating to Relevance > Rules:
|
| Published | Yes or No | If a rule’s published state is Yes, the latest changes to the rule are in effect. If the state is No, the latest changes are not in effect. This also applies to changes to the rule’s status, such as disabling to rule. |
For more information:
| State | Options | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Enabled or Disabled | If a rule’s status is Enabled, the rule is in effect. If a rule’s status is Disabled, the rule is not in effect. This is only true if the rule is published, as described below. |
| Review | Approved or Denied | If a rule’s review state is Approved, and you publish the changes, the latest changes to that rule are in effect. If the state is Denied, and you publish the changes, the Rules Manager deletes the rule. Caution Unlike deleting the rule with the UI, if you delete the rule by publishing it while in a Denied review state, you cannot undo the action. |

This article describes how to use the Rewrites screen in the Rules Editor.
Query rewrite rule types
- Head/Tail. Replace underperforming queries with queries that produce higher click-through rates. Query improvements always require review before they are published. Schedule the Head/Tail Analysis job to get AI-generated query improvements based on your signals collection.
Manually created Head/Tail rewrites must provide an “Improved Query” in a format appropriate to the type of request the rewrite will be applied to. For Legacy requests, this means a valid Solr query fit for use as theqparameter. For DSL requests this means a JSON string representing the main DSL query.
For more information, see: - Misspelling. Fusion replaces misspelled query terms with their spelling corrections for better search results. Schedule the Token and Phrase Spell Correction job to get AI-generated spelling corrections based on your signals collection. For more information, see Misspelling Detection.
- Phrase. Known phrases are boosted when they appear in new queries. Schedule the Phrase Extraction job to get AI-generated phrases based on your signals collection. For more information, see Phrase Detection.
- Synonym. Synonyms are used to expand queries so that they include all known synonyms of the query terms. To retrieve AI-generated synonyms based on your signals collection, schedule the Synonym Detection job.
- Remove Words - Remove particular phrases from queries. Unlike other rewrites, these should be entered manually and are not generated by a job. For more information, see Remove Words.
