relevancy settings for its attributes. Without these settings, the
ranking of the search result will not work correctly; a hit in a
completely unimportant attribute is treated in the same way as a hit in
the ID, for example.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Select the important attributes in the request and set their relevancy
to "high". Set the relevancy of all unimportant attributes in the
request to "low".
