Setting minimum threshold score values for Visualizer queries

When you look for an entity using either the Find By Resolution feature or an attribute alert generator in the Visualizer, you select a minimum likeness score as part of the criteria. Your choice determines the strength of entity and relationship resolution the system uses to find and return entities. You can change the default values for one or more of these thresholds on the Visualizer System Preferences tab.

About this task
These settings are configured for each Visualizer client. By using this task, you only change the minimum score threshold for the Visualizer you are currently logged in to.
  1. In the Visualizer, click File > Preferences > System Preferences.
  2. In the Minimum Score Values section, specify the lowest likeness score to use to determine which search results are displayed. The higher the number, the more entity data that must match the search criteria, which can reduce the number of results that are returned.
  3. Click Submit. A confirmation message informs you that you must restart the Visualizer before your changes take effect.
  4. In the confirmation message, click OK.
  5. Close the Visualizer, reopen the Visualizer, and log in again.
