About Search Indexes

The search indexes definition determines what fields in a data source or business component are included in the index and are available for searching, and what fields are displayed in the Search Center UI as searchable fields. The index definition can enable more efficient and relevant indexing and searching by omitting less relevant fields from the index and search operations.

Search indexes are defined and configured in the Search Index Settings view of the search administration UI.
