# Synonym Search

A synonym query returns results which are conceptually similar to the terms in a `Query` action `Text` parameter or conceptually similar to the synonyms that are available for the `Text` terms.

You can set up synonym searching by using one of these methods:

- Enable synonym searches in IDOL Server.

  HPE recommends this method if you require synonym matching for approximately a hundred terms. The synonym lists that this method uses can contain terms and phrases.

- Set up an additional Synonym IDOL Server in which each document is a synonym list.

  HPE recommends this method if you require synonym matching for a much larger number of terms (several hundred or more). The synonym lists that this method uses can contain only terms, not phrases.
