• Filter
  
  • A Filter is a condition, which is applied to the data in the DAM Center during a search. 
• Group
  
  • A Group is a conditional collection of 1-many Filters, ie a set of if- and else-if statements.
• Draft - Comparison Type
  • Determines how a given Filter does its "filtering".
• Input Type
  • Determines how any Visible filter gets the user's input. This is specific to Media Manager and Video Portal, ie Input Type can be used to gather a search's parameters and therefore has no impact on the search itself.
• Visible filter
  
  • If a Filter is visible, then parameters for that filter can be supplied by the user in Media Manager and Video Portal.
• Predetermined values
  
  • If the parameters for a Filter are known in advance, predetermined values can be applied to the Filter. If Predetermined values are applied to a Filter, any parameters supplied by the user or client code will be ignored.

Some terms are used in both the Input and Output tabs. As with the two previous paragraphs, here is a brief explanation of these terms as well as a link to a page with a more in-depth explanation.

This section gives a brief explanation of various words/concepts, which are relevant for the Search Editor's Input and Output tabs. Each concept has a link to a page, where there will be a more in-depth explanation and guide on how to apply the concept.

• ID
  
  • The ID has two different implications: one for Input, and one for Output
    • Input: The ID of a Filter is the name of the parameter given to the search.
    • Output: The ID of a Value Field is the name of the property in the JSON returned by the search. It can also the name of a label, which is used in Media Manager and Video Portal to display the output of a Value Field.
• Custom attributes
  • Custom attributes are user-defined attributes of a Filter or Value Field.
• Draft - Field
  
  • A Draft - Field is used in conjunction with a Meta data field to specify a value other than the default Meta data field value.
• Draft - Aggregate
  
  • An Draft - Aggregate behaves exactly like an SQL aggregate function in that it performs a calculation on a set of values and returns a single number.
