What is 'Refine Search Results' in 'Search Analysis'?

'Refine Search Results' can be used when a merchant wants to hide or exclude certain products from search results based on specific words that are part of the details of products from the catalog

Tagalys search displays products based on an exact match of the query with the details like attributes, tags & fields defined in Search Accuracy. These results are sorted by Trending to optimize for Search conversion. Sometimes these details might have false positives, that can show inaccurate search results. 

'Refine Search Results' feature helps a merchant to hide or exclude certain products from being displayed for a particular search query, using text or strings from the product information.

For e.g. When a visitor searches for the query 'Shirt' and you want to hide 'Search Suggestions' and 'Search Results' containing 't-shirt' or 'shirt dress' mentioned anywhere in the product details.
