Filter operators
Filter operators define the behaviour of a product filter, as they control the condition that decides whether or not a product is included in the filter result. There are several types of filter operators, some are available across all filter data types while others are data type specific and therefore only available for specific types of product filters.
Reference
All product filter operators categorized per filter type are listed below.
Attribute operators
Attribute operators are available for attribute type filters only. They can be set on attribute level, which means no filter value is used for these operators.
| Icon | Operator name | Description | Example use case |
|---|---|---|---|
 |
Is absent | Matches products which don't have the selected attribute assigned, either directly or on a master level | Find all products that don't have the Color attribute assigned |
 |
Is blank | Matches products which have the selected attribute assigned or which have a master that has the attribute assigned, but where no value is set for the selected attribute | Find all products that have the Color attribute assigned but without a value set |
 |
Is not blank | Matches products which have the selected attribute assigned or which have a master that has the attribute assigned and where the selected attribute contains a value | Find all products that have a value the Color attribute |
 |
Is absent directly on product | Matches products which don't have the selected attribute directly assigned, but which may have the selected attribute assigned on a master level | Find all variant products that don't have the Color attribute assigned |
 |
Has no value directly on product | Matches products which have the selected attribute assigned or which have a master that has the attribute assigned, but where no value is set for the selected attribute directly on the product | Find all variant products that have the Color attribute assigned but without a value set |
 |
Has value directly on product | Matches products which have the selected attribute directly assigned or which have a master that has the attribute assigned and where the selected attribute contains a value directly on the product | Find all variant products that have a value the Color attribute |
Field type specific operators
Field type specific operators are applied on attribute field level, which means they take the data type of the attribute field into account and define a condition based on that. Field type specific operators require one or more user provided values in order to create a condition for the attribute field. The amount of values to be provided is depending on the type of operator.
Note
All field level operators use matching on the product's entire master hierarchy. This means that values inherited from a master of the product are matched as well as values directly on the product itself.

Logical operators
Logical operators are operators that link two or more filters and define how the complete filter should be interpreted.
Bizzkit PIM supports logical operators AND and OR. Here's how to use them to create search queries:
| Operator name | Description | Example use case |
|---|---|---|
| AND | Combines two filters by making the combination of the two match products | Find products with a Color that is Blue and in the Category Clothing |
| OR | Combines two filters by making sure one of the two match products | Find products in the Category Clothing or which are of Type Clothing |
Note
The OR logical operator can only be used in the Advanced filters, whereas the AND logical operator is available in both the Basic and Advanced filters.
Tip
When creating multiple filters on the same attribute using the equals operator which are connected with OR as logical operator, consider using a single filter with the is any of operator instead.
