You use the DefineIndexField configuration action to add field definitions to your domain configuration. If the specified field already exists, DefineIndexField replaces it.
The type-specific options enable you to define a default value for a field, and enable or disable specific features for text and literal fields:
FacetEnabled—controls whether facets can be calculated for this field. Calculating facets determines how many documents contain matching values for the field. Facet counts are not automatically returned for facet-enabled fields; they must be explicitly requested at search time. (Uint fields are always facet-enabled.)ResultEnabled—controls whether the contents of a text or literal field can be returned. (Uint fields are always returnable.)SearchEnabled—controls whether a literal field is searchable. (Text and uint fields are always searchable.)
For example, to create a uint index field called year and populate it with the data from the yearreleased field in the SDF data:
https://cloudsearch.us-east-1.amazonaws.com ?Action=DefineIndexField &DomainName=movies &IndexField.IndexFieldName=year &IndexField.IndexFieldType=uint &IndexField.SourceAttributes.member.1.SourceDataCopy.SourceName=yearreleased &IndexField.SourceAttributes.member.1.SourceDataFunction=Copy &IndexField.UIntOptions.DefaultValue=0 &Version=2011-02-01 &X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 &X-Amz-Credential=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE/20120401/us-east-1/cloudsearch/aws4_request &X-Amz-Date=2012-04-01T17:00:07.803Z &X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host &X-Amz-Signature=b291a01dd69a49e04f4a84862b38e0758c53cf93b76dd452cc802886b20 724bc
