Mapping between profiles

This topic shows the mapping between the search profiles that are used by the search-related CatalogNavigationView BOD services and the corresponding search profiles that are used by the search REST services from the search server.

There are several factors that differentiate search profiles from each other. When comparing search profiles, consider the following factors:
Query fields
Controls the search scope.
Results fields
Controls the returned fields.
Expression providers
Contributes to the selection criteria object.
Preprocessors
Prepares the final search expression object.
Postprocessors
Mediates the search response, and contributes to the final response object.
If you cannot find an exact matching search profile, consider creating your own search profile to meet your requirements.
Note: Some of the new search profiles might return more data than the previous search profiles. For more information, see HCL Commerce Search profiles.
