You can enable attribute types and their attributes to be queryable in a search.

1. Go to **Admin Console** > **Catalog** > **Attribute Types**.
2. [Click  Add Attribute Type  to create a new one](docId\:fOeOQcUa7C8AXs8uq7fXX) or **Edit** for an existing attribute type.
3. Ensure **Searchable** is set to **Yes**. If **Yes**, search results will be returned for matches on attribute values for this attribute type. If **No**, the attribute values will not be included in the search index, so they will not be searchable on the storefront. There will also not be search matches for products with attribute values that belong to this attribute type. Default value: **Yes**.

   **Note**

   For the attributes to show in the Field Boosting section, you must run the Nightly Maintenance job.
   :::
4. Go to **Marketing** > **Search** > **Field Boosting** and set **Show Non-Queryable Fields** to **Yes**.
5. Click **Edit** beside the attribute.
6. Set **Queryable** to **Yes**.
7. Select appropriate data type for the attribute. If you choose **Text** for the **Data Type,** select the Analyzer to be used.
   - Search for or select the **Index Analyzer**. Elasticsearch uses this analyzer to index this field. 
   - Search for or select the **Query Analyzer**. Elasticsearch uses this analyzer to search against this field. 
8. Click **Save**.

You can read more information in the [Elasticsearch types and index/query analyzer article](docId\:TodlvkVABlGxzJ_J3i3CU).
