Endeca - (Attribute) Group - Group Description Records (GDRs)
Table of Contents
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).
