    Use Query Rewrites in the Rules Editor

    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.

      In Fusion 5.3 and later, 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 the q parameter. 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. 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:

    • 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:

    • Remove Words (Fusion 5.4 and later) - Remove particular phrases from queries. Unlike other rewrites, these should be entered manually and are not generated by a job. See Remove Words.
