    • AI Search excludes source record fields encrypted with Encryption Support or Edge Encryption.

    When dealing with an encrypted source record field, AI Search has the following limitations:
    • Content indexing excludes the encrypted field. This exclusion means that search query terms won't match terms from the encrypted field's content.
    • You can't create a facet using the encrypted field.
    • If a search query attempts to filter on the encrypted field, such as when applying an access control list (ACL) filter, the search query fails. An Encrypted Field is not supported error message is logged.
