Facets
Facets are powerful filters that categorize search results based on specific attributes, enabling users to quickly identify and access relevant data points within a large dataset.How Facets Work
When a user performs a search, the API not only retrieves relevant listings but also provides a summary of attributes related to those listings in the form of facets. Each facet category will display the count of listings corresponding to each attribute, allowing users to gauge the prevalence of specific characteristics within the search results.Available Facets
