Endeca - (Attribute) Group - Group Description Records (GDRs)
About
Attribute groups are ordered lists of attributes. They are stored in the Oracle Endeca Server as records.
Attribute groups are useful for organizing a large number of attributes in the user interface of your front-end application, such as Studio.
You can:
- define a set of attribute groups to be displayed,
- assign attributes to each group,
- and determine the display order of the groups and attributes.
Groups are defined using Group Description Records (GDRs).
