# FieldCheckType

Whether to hash the values of fields with this property for fast retrieval. Type `true` to map the values of the associated PropertyFieldCSVs field to integers (by hashing and storing them in memory), to make them available for especially fast retrieval. Typically, you assign `FieldCheckType` to fields where you frequently use the entire value to restrict results (for example, a field that stores category names).

For more information about `FieldCheckType` fields, refer to the Knowledge Discovery Administration Guide.

NOTE: Each document that you store in the Content component must contain only one `FieldCheckType` field. If Content receives a document that contains more than one `FieldCheckType` field, it acknowledges only the first `FieldCheckType` field and ignores the rest.

If you set `UrlAnalysis` to `true` in the Content component configuration file `[Server]` section, you cannot identify a field as a `FieldCheckType` field, as Content automatically uses the domain it finds in document Reference fields as FieldCheck value.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | `MyProperty`
Example: | `FieldCheckType=true`
See Also: | Property PropertyFieldCSVs

NOTE: If you change this setting after you have indexed content into the Content component, you must reindex the content.
