# SectionFields

The fields that indicate the start of a new section in the document (if you are indexing XML, you do not need to specify section fields as IDOL Server automatically sections XML data). IDOL Server treats these fields as SectionBreakType for the documents that you send in the index action.

NOTE: Micro Focus recommends that you use field configuration to set SectionBreakType fields, instead of setting this parameter for a single index action.

Separate multiple fields with commas. There must be no space before or after a comma. You can use wildcards.

When identifying fields use the formats:

- `/FieldName` to match root-level fields

- `*/FieldName` to match all fields except root-level

- `/Path/FieldName` to match fields that the specified path points to.

If you specify only the field name, IDOL Server automatically adds a `*/` to it.

Default: |
Example: | `SectionFields=Document/DRESection,*/mySection` In this example, any `DRESection` field below the `Document` level and any `mySection` fields indicate the start of a new section.
