Facetable fields are defined in an index, but facet parameters and expressions are defined in query requests. If you have an index with facetable fields, you can try new features like [facet hierarchs](#facet-hierarchy-example) and [aggregations](#facet-aggregation-example) on existing indexes.

Depending on the API, a facet query is usually an array of facet expressions that are applied to search results. Each facet expression contains a facetable field name, optionally followed by a comma-separated list of name-value pairs.

The values within a field, and not the field name itself, produce the facets in a faceted navigation structure. If the facet is a string field named *Color*, facets are blue, green, and any other value for that field. As a best practice, review field values to ensure there are no typos, nulls, or casing differences. Consider [assigning a normalizer](search-normalizers.md) to a "filterable" and "facetable" field to smooth out minor variations in the text.

You can't set facets on existing fields, on vector fields, or fields of type `Edm.GeographyPoint` or `Collection(Edm.GeographyPoint)`.

Chunking is only required if the source documents are too large for the maximum input size imposed by models. Here are some common chunking techniques, associated with built-in features if you use [indexers](search-indexer-overview.md) and [skills](cognitive-search-working-with-skillsets.md).

Chunking is only required if the source documents are too large for the maximum input size imposed by models, but it's also beneficial if content is poorly represented as a single vector. Consider a wiki page that covers a lot of varied sub-topics. The entire page might be small enough to meet model input requirements, but you might get better results if you chunk at a finer grain.
