The properties included with Query Generation apply to segments. They define whether the record or indicator that is the basis for a segment has been recently used or changed.
These properties are available for Query Generation.  
Note:  
To open the System Properties \[sys_properties\] table, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_properties.list</kbd> in the navigation filter.
{#querygen-properties__table_v5w_l2h_23c__entry__2}

| Property | Description |
|-|-|
| sn_query_gen.default_source_type | Fallback source type when the user request and conversation history do not determine whether to use table or indicator data. Accepted values: 'table' (default), 'indicator', or 'match_found_wins' (indicator data if a match was found, otherwise table). Does not apply in agentic mode. * Type: String * Default value: table * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table |
| sn_query_gen.hidden_insights.groupby.min_fields | The target number of group-by fields for extended analysis in AI Data Explorer. These group-by fields are taken from the default list view of the relevant table. When this list view contains fewer eligible fields than the property value, the system looks for more eligible fields on the table to try to reach this count. * Type: Integer * Default value: 5 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Extended analysis](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/hkJC7hoQOoXsMc9je1q4Hw "Generate a deeper level of analysis that can reveal new insights, enabling you to make more informed decisions.") |
| sn_query_gen.segment_enabled | When set to true, segments are created and used. When false, no segments are created, and all existing segments are excluded from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments are deactivated. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: true * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.filter | When set to true, excludes all segments from sys_filter from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.manual_segment | When set to true, excludes all segments from sn_query_gen_segment_table_config (manual segments) from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. Note: The ability to disable manual segments is intended for testing and troubleshooting purposes. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.pa_cubes | When set to true, excludes all segments from indicator sources (pa_cubes) from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.report | When set to true, excludes all segments from sys_reports from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.report_sources | When set to true, excludes all segments from sys_report_source from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.disable.sys_app_module | When set to true, excludes all segments from sys_app_module from AI Data Explorer search results. During the next Sync Segments Job, all segments of that type are deactivated in the Segment table. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: false * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.ais_batch_fetch_enabled | When set to true, enables batch AIS search where manual and automated segments are searched separately for better coverage. When disabled, manual and automated segments compete for the same result slots. * Type: Boolean (true/false) * Default value: true * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") |
| sn_query_gen.segments.indicator.inactivity_threshold_multiplier | Applies a multiplier to how long ago an indicator value can have changed for that indicator to be "recently changed." The \[Query Generation\] Sync Segments job deactivates segments based on indicators that have not recently changed. The value that is multiplied differs by indicator frequency (see [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.")). * Type: Integer * Default value: 1 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") {#querygen-properties__ul_g5w_bhh_23c} |

| sn_query_gen.segments.max_filter_length | The maximum number of characters a segment can contain. Segments of greater length are removed. * Type: Integer * Default value: 2000 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") {#querygen-properties__ul_usg_thw_x3c} |
| sn_query_gen.segments.reports.last_viewed_threshold_days | Defines how many days ago a report can have run for that report to be considered "recently run." The \[Query Generation\] Sync Segments job deactivates segments based on reports that have not run recently. It also deactivates report sources whose reports have not run recently. * Type: Integer * Default value: 180 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") {#querygen-properties__ul_w5w_l2h_23c} |
| sn_query_gen.segments_search_limit | The maximum number of results that can be requested from AI Search per search for segments. * Type: Integer * Default value: 12 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") {#querygen-properties__ul_qlt_ltd_y3c} |
| sn_query_gen.segments_result_limit | The maximum number of segments that AI Search can return after filtering. * Type: Integer * Default value: 12 * Location: System Property \[sys_properties\] table * Learn more: [Segments in the Query Generation semantic layer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NOC1a9gHlH7q9p__xcmuLQ "Segments are predefined filter conditions that map business terminology to specific query filters, helping the semantic layer translate natural language questions into accurate database queries.") {#querygen-properties__ul_dch_std_y3c} |
