How to use vehicle filter
Vehicle Filter is a spreadsheet with the headers Year, Make, Model, Submodel. It is created in the client’s folder on GDrive and connected in schema.yaml
in the Sources
with the key vehicle_filter
.
- Currently, only the Year, Make, Model, Submodel fields are used;
- You can use the wildcard character
*
for any field within a single fitment in all fields; - * - all possible values, and an empty cell - mandatory absence of a value. For example, “Ford F-150 *” in the Vehicle Filter will pass both “Ford F-150” and “Ford F-150 XL”, whereas “Ford F-150” will pass only “Ford F-150”
- In the Year field, you can include all the formats of years we support;
- By default, the Vehicle Filter operates in whitelist mode, meaning only the fitments that match any of the rules will be included in the index;
- To switch to blacklist mode, you need to create a row with asterisk
*
in all fields. This literally means “take everything except what is specified below”, i.e., all fitments will be included in the index except those that match any of the other rules;
