Natural language search
Fuse uses natural language search to make it easier for you to find the content you are looking for. Fuse intuitively adds filters to search results based on what you have searched for. This is known as query snapping.
For example, if you search for "Health and safety event at the Excel Centre with John Smith", Fuse might intuitively apply the following facets to search results:
- Event: Filters the search results to only show events, including a list of occurrences within each event.
- Host: Filters to show events with a particular host, in this case a host called John Smith.
- Location: Filters to only show events taking place at a specific location, in this case Excel Centre.
- Tags: Applies any preexisting tags, for example, Fuse might apply tags for Health, Safety, and Health and Safety.
