Workbench¶
What’s in this document?
Overview¶
The Workbench provides a search user interface where you can execute various types of search queries against the configured Semantic Search.
The search field offers auto-suggest. Select or hit Enter on the preferred suggestion, and Enter/click Search to see the results.

You can navigate through search result pages, and also change the page size via the drop-down list on the top right.
Search Types¶
Full-text Search¶
The entered text will be matched against all text and keyword fields declared as searchable in the SOML schema.
Concept Search¶
Suggests relevant objects (concepts) from which you can select and execute a search.
Drill-down (Faceted) Search¶
With the facet filters on the left, you can refine the search results by filtering them by facet (e.g., type
, releaseDate
, boxOffice
, episodeId
, and so on). Click on a filter to expand it, and hover over a facet to see its full name. The number on the right shows how many objects match each facet.
![]()
Select a facet to filter your search results. To unselect it, click the close icon next to its name:
![]()
Select multiple facets:
![]()
Click on an object from the returned results to view details about it in the panel that opens on the right.

The same applies if you want to further explore the objects in the displayed details. For example, to find out more about the character “Lando Calrissian”, click on it. This will open it in a new tab.

Note
