Facet
Information about a document attribute or field. You can use document attributes as facets.
For example, the document attribute or facet "Department" includes the values "HR", "Engineering", and "Accounting". You can display these values in the search results so that documents can be searched by department.
You can display up to 10 facet values per facet for a query. If you want to increase
this limit, contact Support

For example, the document attribute or facet "Department" includes a value called "Engineering". In addition, the document attribute or facet "SubDepartment" includes the values "Frontend" and "Backend" for documents assigned to "Engineering". You can display nested facets in the search results so that documents can be searched not only by department but also by a sub department within a department. This helps your users further narrow their search.
