Extracting entities
If an item of content has been created in one of the languages listed below, Fuse is able to process the text within the content and extract entities. An entity is a piece of information that is present somewhere in the content body that matches predefined categories, such as Person, Date, Company or File typea person, date, organisation, location and so on, which Fuse can transform into metadata. This metadata is then used to help users find this content quickly in searches. This metadata also allows Fuse to perform query snapping, in which Fuse automatically applies filters and facets to search results.
For example, a Word document might contain the following sentence: 'John Smith's company, ACME Corp, successfully designed and produced their first electric car in 2020'. Fuse might scan this sentence within the Word document and add the following tags to make it easier to find in searches:
- 2020 (DateTime)
- John Smith (Person)
- ACME Corp (Organisation)
