# Example Boost Rule

The following boost rule adds the FieldText `BIASVAL{chicken,70}:MAIN_INGREDIENT` to a query that contains the FieldText `MATCH{American}:CUISINE`.

NOTE: For this example, the `ALWAYSMATCH` field must be configured in the Promotion Agentstore as an AlwaysMatchType field.

    #DREREFERENCE BOOST_RULE_27_1254181469986_eawn
    #DRETITLE boost rule 5
    #DREFIELD QMSTYPE="7"
    #DREFIELD DATABASERESTRICTION="Recipes"
    #DREFIELD QMSAGENTBOOL="*"
    #DREFIELD QMSFIELDTEXT="MATCH{American}:CUISINE"
    #DREFIELD COUNTRY=""
    #DREFIELD CONCEPT="BIASVAL{chicken,70}:MAIN_INGREDIENT"
    #DREFIELD ALWAYSMATCH="1"
    #DREENDDOC

This rule expands the following query:

    action=Query&Text=fried&ExpandQuery=True&SynonymDatabaseMatch=True&DatabaseMatch=Recipes&FieldText=MATCH{American}:CUISINE

to:

    action=Query&Text=fried&DatabaseMatch=Recipes&FieldText=MATCH{American}:CUISINE AND BIASVAL{chicken,70}:MAIN_INGREDIENT
