    SettingDescription
    UI search appends wildcard
    • True (default): A wildcard (asterisk) is automatically added to each search query. An asterisk is not added in the following exceptions:
      • If the query contains a tilde (~).
      • If the query ends with a quotation mark (").

      Note This applies only to queries via the user interface. A wildcard is not added automatically for REST API queries.

    • False: No wildcard is added to the search query.
    Maximum batch size

    The amount of resources scanned in one go for the search query.

    The default value is 5,000. The maximum value is 30,000.

    Maximum batch size for relations

    Maximum batch size for relations reindex.

    Stop words

    (Requires restart)

    A list of stop words that are ignored as tokens for the index.

    The default list of English stop words includes:

    a, an, and, are, as, at, be, but, by, for, if, in, into, is, it, no, not, of, on, or, such, that, the, their, then, there, these, they, this, to, was, will, with

    If you choose not to create your own list of stop words, the default list applies.

    If you create your own list of stop words, you have to:

    1. Reindex Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud.
    2. Restart the environment to apply your changes. For more information, go to Stop an environment and Start an environment.

    Relation-based search
    • True (default): The Data Marketplace search considers certain assets and relation types between assets. As a result, your search results not only include assets that directly match the search criteria, but also assets that match the criteria through specific relation types.

      Example A column named Order is included in a data set named Customer. If the relation-based search is enabled and you search for Order in Data Marketplace, then the data set Customer appears in the search results because the data set contains this column.

      Tip For more information about this feature and the default relation types, go to Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.

    • False: The Data Marketplace search results do not consider relations.

    After you enable this setting, you must reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

  3. Click Save all.
