About this task
Additional resources are pre-defined. An additional resource is either a searchable source table with query conditions or a reference to a Predictive Intelligence Similarity solution definition.
Note: You can only view the Predictive Intelligence resources if you are licensed for Predictive Intelligence and have activated Predictive Intelligence for Contextual Search.
Procedure
-
Navigate to All > Contextual Search > Search Contexts.
-
Open the search context record for which you want to see the additional resources.
-
In the Additional Resource Configurations related list, select Edit.
-
Filter the additional resources displayed in the Collection field by defining filter conditions and selecting Run filter.
As an example, you can display only additional resources with the Predictive Intelligence Similarity type.
-

For example, if you want to move additional resources whose type is Predictive Intelligence Similarity, then move Similar Incidents, Similar Knowledge Articles, Similar Open Change Requests, Similar Open Incidents, Similar Open Problems, and Similar Resolved Incidents from the Collection field to the Additional Resource Configurations List field.
