### Hybrid: Query Text

Provide a query text to combine vector search with a keyword/text search.

### Hybrid: Explain Score

Whether to show the score fused between hybrid and vector search explanation.

### Hybrid: Fusion Type

Select the fusion type for combining vector and keyword search results. [Learn more about fusion algorithms](https://weaviate.io/learn/knowledgecards/fusion-algorithm).

Options:
- **Relative Score**: Uses relative score fusion
- **Ranked**: Uses ranked fusion

### Hybrid: Auto Cut Limit

Limit result groups by detecting sudden jumps in score. [Learn more about autocut](https://docs.weaviate.io/weaviate/api/graphql/additional-operators#autocut){:target=_blank .external-link}.

### Hybrid: Alpha

Change the relative weights of the keyword and vector components. 1.0 = pure vector, 0.0 = pure keyword. Default is 0.5. [Learn more about the alpha parameter](https://weaviate.io/learn/knowledgecards/alpha-parameter){:target=_blank .external-link}.

### Hybrid: Query Properties

Comma-separated list of properties to include in the query with optionally weighted values, e.g., "question^2,answer". [Learn more about setting weights on property values](https://docs.weaviate.io/weaviate/search/hybrid#set-weights-on-property-values){:target=_blank .external-link}.
