- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP basic
  - HTTP bearer

**🔐 This endpoint requires [HTTP authentication](https://docs.constructor.com/reference/main-authentication) (either [Basic](https://docs.constructor.com/reference/main-authentication#basic-authentication) or [Bearer](https://docs.constructor.com/reference/main-authentication#bearer-authentication)).**

## Path parameters

- `name` string, required

## Query parameters

- `key` string, required: The key of the index to use.
- `section` string: The section of the index to use. Defaults to `Products`.
- `c` string: The ID of the client and version that the request is coming from, such as `cio-js-2.90`.

## Response `200`

OK

- SearchabilityV2GetResponse
  - `name` string, required: Name of searchability field.
  - `fuzzy_searchable` boolean, required: Configure a field as fuzzy-searchable to enable typo-tolerant keyword-matching on field values in search and autocomplete. A field can be fuzzy-searchable or exact-searchable, but not both. Avoid marking very verbose fields (e.g. long descriptions) as fuzzy-searchable, since it can lead to recall of more items than is necessary and introduces complexity with ranking.
  - `exact_searchable` boolean, required: Configure this field for ID or ID-like values (SKU ID, ISBN, part number, etc.) to enable exact matching only, with no typo-tolerance, for search and autocomplete. Do not use for fields containing natural language words. A field can be exact-searchable or fuzzy-searchable, but not both.
  - `displayable` boolean, required: Specifies whether the field is displayable in the response within the `results` array.
  - `hidden` boolean, required: Hides the field by default in the response but makes it available to retrieve via `fmt_options[hidden_fields]` parameter.
  - `created_at` string, date-time, required: Creation date and time
  - `updated_at` string, date-time: Last updated date and time
