# Sentences

The number of sentences that you want the summary to include.

If you set Summary to `ParagraphConcept` or `ParagraphContext`, `Sentences` represents the number of paragraphs that you want the summary to include.

NOTE: The `ParagraphConcept` and `ParagraphContext` options are not available for the GetContent action.

For a `Concept` or `Context` Summary, if you set both `Sentences` and Characters, IDOL Content Component attempts to satisfy both requirements. If it cannot apply both restrictions (for example, because the only sentences that contain the best terms are longer than the character restriction), it uses only the Characters restriction. If it cannot create a concept or context summary that fits either restriction, IDOL Content Component returns a `quick` summary.

Similarly, if you set only `Sentences`, and IDOL Content Component cannot detect any sentences that contain the best terms, IDOL Content Component returns a `quick` summary.
