A short phrase describing the type of search to perform, such as “Alphanumeric Search” or “Phonetic Search”. This appears next to the option button on the search page when multiple search options are defined. |
|
The type of query to use when this type of search is selected. The value entered here must match a query-builder name in the Candidate Select file. |
|
An indicator of whether the results of the search are assigned matching probability weights. Specify true to assign matching weights; specify false to return unweighted results. |
|
The maximum number of records to return for a search. This value must be a positive number, and is only used for blocking queries. Setting the candidate threshold to zero is equivalent to not setting a threshold. |
|
A list of optional parameters for the search, specified by name and value elements (described below). |
|
The name of the parameter. Currently, only UseWildCard is available. |
|
The value of the parameter. For the UseWildCard parameter, this is an indicator of whether the parameter is enabled or disabled. Specify true to allow wildcard characters; specify false to perform exact-match searches. |
