Facet Profiles

Introduction

Facet Profile extends Profiles with extra properties
Facet Profile it is an ordered list of field definitions with options (see below)
It is used to configure front-end filters used in overview pages

The following rules apply to which field definitions you can add to a facet profile

The field definition must be indexed
The field definition must be one of the Simple Fields except TextField
Only field definitions of type ThesaurusLabelField with the language property matching the current language of the users will be displayed
- Ex. ThesaurusField.EN and ThesaurusField.NL are added to the profile and the language of the user is set to English => The user will only see the ThesaurusField.EN facet in the application

Facets have the following options per field definition

Property	Description	Type	Default Value	Required	ReadOnly

Property	Description	Type	Default Value	Required	ReadOnly
SelectionType	The type of selection. `SHOULD`: at least one selected value must match. `MUST`: all selected values must match.	Enum	MUST	no	no
HideEmpty	Indicates if the empty facets are hidden.	Boolean	false	no	no
Sort	On what a facet is sorted. Possible values are `MostFrequent`, `Alphabetically`, `Chronologically`, `FixedOrder`.	Enum	depends on the field definition type	no	no
ReverseOrder	Sort the results in reverse order. Can only be true if Sort = `Chronologically`.	Boolean	false	no	no
DefaultNumberOfValues	The number of facets to show. Must be in range [1,100].	Number	depends on the field definition type	no	no
IncludeMissingValue	Include the missing value (e.g. `No Keywords`).	Boolean	true	no	no
IncludeActiveValues	Include values which are present as pure MUST terms in the query (e.g. `+Descriptive.Keywords.Keyword:Cork`).	Boolean	false	no	no

Notes: - The following rules apply to the Sort property:

Values MostFrequent and Alphabetically are only applicable for non-date fields and non-enum fields, the default value is MostFrequent.
Value Chronologically is only applicable for profile fields having a field definition with type DateField.
Value FixedOrder is only applicable for profile fields having a field definition with type EnumField: values are sorted in the order in which the possible values are defined on the field definition.
The default value for DefaultNumberOfValues is 10 for non-date fields, 12 for date fields.
If SelectionType = SHOULD, the following applies: if a facet value is selected, this will affect the counts of all facets, except the facet itself. SHOULD is not applicable for date fields.
