Highlight queries

You can configure highlight queries to work with your iBase database. Highlight queries are used to highlight specific data in the i2 Explore for iBase user interface, such as entities, links, and attributes. This allows users to quickly identify important information in their data.

To configure highlight queries to work with your iBase database, you first need to run the deploy process to deploy the application. This generates a highlight queries XSD file, based on the schema in the connected iBase database, to the following location:

• <installation_location>/explore-for-ibase/analyze-deployment-tooling/configs/explore-for-ibase/configuration/highlight-queries-configuration.xsd

When the XSD file has been generated, you can create a highlight query file that conforms to the XSD schema. For help designing and implementing highlight queries, refer to the following documentation:

• Highlight query structure

• Highlight query file

• Highlight query example

When you have created the highlight query xml file, place it in the following location:

• <installation_location>/explore-for-ibase/analyze-deployment-tooling/configs/explore-for-ibase/configuration/highlight-queries-configuration.xml

When the file is in place, run the deploy process to deploy the file to the application.
