Hi @roser,

Quick question –

What fields are eligible to be returned for direct answers as of 8/20/19?

Are there any field types that are not eligible to be returned?

Thanks,
Liz

Hi Liz!

Right now, these are the fields we’re blacklisting from direct answers:

  1. Any field that is type Luhn ( A numeric string with a Luhn checksum), Country Code or Google Place ID

  2. These fields:

location.address_hidden",

        "entity.business_id",

        "entity.conversation_questions_and_answers_enabled",

        "entity.deliver_listings_without_geocode",

        "entity.holiday_hours_conversation_enabled",

        "entity.entity_id",

        "entity.entity_type_id",

        "entity.matching_search_ids",

        "entity.nudge_conversation_enabled",

        "entity.review_response_conversation_enabled",

        "location.cluster_index",

        "location.is_cluster_primary",

        "location.rich_content_suppressed"

I have an item in our backlog that I’ll discuss with engineering tomorrow during our sync on being able to specify blacklisted fields in the config.
