Is it possible to apply weights/boosts to a specific attribute?

You can give more weight to specific attributes by defining them in order of importance in your searchableAttributes. You can change this setting with the setSettings method on our API clients, or through the dashboard under Indices Configuration.

For instance, if you want to give more importance to matches in the name than the description, you need to set the “name” attribute before the “description” attribute in your searchableAttributes.

If you want multiple attributes to have the same importance, you can group them with a comma-separated list.
