Faceted Search with Headless API https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=119785294&threadId=120925694 2026-04-06T23:56:01Z 2026-04-06T23:56:01Z Christopher Dawson https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=120925693 2021-08-17T16:02:58Z 2021-07-07T18:37:02Z

<p>I was hoping that someone from the community - or Liferay internal teams - could provide a simple example of how to pass back facet entries selected by a user to a headless resource?</p> <p>I am able to generate the Facets themselves via interaction with the SearchContext and include them in the response payload. It's just not clear to me what I need to do with them when a user selects one. For example:</p> <ul> <li>Should I be converting them into Odata filters?</li> <li>Is there a way to format them so that they are transformed into an Aggregation?</li></ul> <p>Any help on this would be much appreciated as I am unable to find documentation that deals with this very specific scenario.</p>
