| Search Terms | In most cases, this will be set to "Context Field" allowing you to specify the context that would contains the search terms.

It would be configured up front by the customer's IT team. |
| Facet State Expression | This will almost always be set to "Context Field" so you would specify the context that would have the current state of the selected facets. Business users would not manage this. It would be configured up front by the customer's IT team. |
