# Shopify App Block Filters & Facets

# Introduction

Facets and filters are used to help users refine their search results or pinpoint specific products on Nimstrata's Shopify App Block search results and collection pages. You can create filters for most product catalog attributes that you import to the Google Cloud Retail API.

# App Block Filter Settings

The default attributes when you create an App Block are brands, colors, sizes, availability, and categories. You can add or remove additional attributes as desired.

# Custom Attributes

If your catalog includes custom attributes, use the full name of the attribute, including "attributes." in the App Block settings. If your catalog has an attribute such as a product dimension, you can choose to return a slider instead of checkboxes.

In the attributes section, add "range:" before the rest of the attribute value, like the example in the screenshot below:
