Indexes
What follows is a list of FirstSearch indexes and the combination of USE and STRUCTURE
attributes that can be used to access them.
- For any FirstSearch label where multiple USE attributes are listed all the attributes will provide the exact same search result sets.
- Any USE attribute that is not marked as a restrictor is available via the
SCAN service.
- Restrictors are specially implemented indexes and are not available for
scanning. Terms for these must be ANDed with other terms to limit the size
of the result set. See the table provided for each restrictor to determine
valid terms and their associated meaning.
