jcr:score criteria

[pixislinger]

Hi,

What is the ordering criteria used by jcr:score property in Querying?

[nitesh_kumar]

Hi @pixislinger ,

It represents the full-text search score of the node, which is a measure of the node's relevance to the full-text search expression.

More implementation details here:-

Hope this helps!

Hello @pixislinger 

• The jcr:score property is calculated using the FulltextSearch query function in AEM.
• The score is based on the number of times the search terms appear in the node's properties, the proximity of the terms to each other, and other relevance factors.
•  

Importance of jcr:score in AEM queries:

• jcr:score is important in AEM queries because it allows you to sort the query results by relevance.
• Sorting by jcr:score ensures that the most relevant nodes appear at the top of the search results.
