# Term lists

Term lists are lists of terms or phrases that you can use to search and filter for documents. You can also define search queries using valid Elasticsearch syntax.

You can define terms by typing the list of terms into the wizard, or by uploading a TXT or CSV file containing the list of terms. Each defined term or phrase can have a maximum of 100 characters, including spaces. TXT or CSV files to be uploaded can have a maximum file size of 1MB. Term lists, whether typed directly into the wizard or uploaded, are limited to a maximum of 1000 terms.

When creating term lists, consider how you will use the term list. If you create a tag based on the term list, the terms are treated as queries. If you create a grammar using the term list, the terms are treated as keywords. For this reason, create term lists intended for grammar usage with individual terms instead of phrases.

IMPORTANT: To upload a CSV file, you must have Microsoft Excel installed on the machine on which you are accessing OpenText Core Data Discovery & Risk Insights.

Term lists can be deleted at any time. If you delete a term list, items already processed are not affected.
