Code query pipeline rules

In this article

Coveo organization members with developer skills can use the Query pipeline language (QPL) syntax to create more flexible query pipeline rules.

To code query pipeline language rules

  1. On the Query Pipelines (platform-ca | platform-eu | platform-au) page, click the query pipeline for which you want to code rules, and then click Edit components in the Action bar.

  2. On the selected pipeline page, select the tab for the type of rule that you want to code.

  3. On the selected component subpage, click dots, and then click Add rule with code.

  4. In the Add a Rule With Code dialog:

    Admin-CreateRuleCode3
    1. Enter a rule respecting the query pipeline language syntax.

    2. Click Add Rule.

      Note

      If you try to use this interface to extend the Coveo query pipeline behavior (for example, by entering JavaScript code), you’ll receive an error message:

      The definition of the statement is syntactically invalid.

  5. You can perform other actions on your rule (see Manage query pipeline rules and rule conditions From Tabs).

  6. Validate that your new rule performs as desired (see Manage A/B tests).
