boost_by?: Array<BoostBy>

Metadata fields to boost search results by. Each entry specifies a metadata field and an optional direction. Direction defaults to 'asc' for numeric fields and 'exists' for text/boolean fields. Fields must match 'timestamp' or a defined custom_metadata field.

field: string

Metadata field name to boost by. Use 'timestamp' for document freshness, or any custom_metadata field. Numeric and datetime fields support asc/desc directions; text/boolean fields support exists/not_exists.

maxLength64
minLength1
direction?: "asc" | "desc" | "exists" | "not_exists"

Boost direction. 'desc' = higher values rank higher (e.g. newer timestamps). 'asc' = lower values rank higher. 'exists' = boost chunks that have the field. 'not_exists' = boost chunks that lack the field. Optional ��� defaults to 'asc' for numeric/datetime fields, 'exists' for text/boolean fields.

One of the following:
"asc"
"desc"
"exists"
"not_exists"
keyword_match_mode?: "and" | "or"

Controls which documents are candidates for BM25 scoring. 'and' restricts candidates to documents containing all query terms; 'or' includes any document containing at least one term, ranked by BM25 relevance. Defaults to 'and'. Legacy values 'exact_match' and 'fuzzy_match' are accepted and map to 'and' and 'or' respectively.
