You can use the elements in the searchpriorities.xml file to create groups of class_ids, class_types, or favorite_types and assign a priority value to the group. You can assign a priority value to a group, where one indicates a low priority and ten indicates a high priority. The search results appear based on the priority assigned to the group.

By default, searchpriorities.xml is in the following directory:

<Informatica installation directory>\services\shared\jars\pc\classes

After you update the searchpriorities.xml file, you must complete the following tasks:

Restart the Metadata Manager Service.
Update the index for all resources.
