Semantic configuration for search indexes

You can improve the relevance of semantic search results by using semantic configurations. Semantic configurations provide precise control over search quality, eliminating the need for recreating the index.

TotalAgility provides a Default semantic configuration; however, you can add new semantic configurations when adding indexes to the AI knowledge base.

  1. In the New AI Knowledge Base configuration dialog box, select for Indexes.

    The Add Index dialog box is displayed.

  2. To add a new semantic configuration, select for Semantic configuration.

    The Add Semantic configuration dialog box is displayed.

  3. Enter an ID for the configuration.
  4. By default, the ID appears as the Display name. Enter a different name. This name is used to identify the configuration when selecting it in the knowledge base activities or forms.
  5. On the Title field list, select an index field.

    This title field is used by semantic search to represent the "title" of a document.

  6. To add the content fields that represent the main searchable content:
    1. Select for Content fields.
    2. On the Display name list, select the system field and select Add.

      The content field is added to the table.

    3. Add more fields as needed.

      • The content fields must be of type, "String" or "Collection of string".

      • You can add, remove, or re-order the content fields.

  7. To add the keyword fields for use in semantic search:
    1. Select for Keyword fields.
    2. On the Display name list, select the system field and select Add.

      The keyword is added to the table.

    3. Add more fields as needed.

      • The content fields must be of type "String" or "Collection of string".

      • You can add, remove, or re-order the keyword fields.

  8. Select OK .

    The Add Index dialog box is displayed.

  9. Select OK and save the AI knowledge base configuration.

    The semantic configuration is available for use in the AI discovery agent activity, Copilot insights, and the Generative AI chat control using the knowledge base.
