# Registry Customisation in Cloud Settings

{% hint style="danger" %} <mark style="color:red;">**You must be an administrator of the Aristotle Metadata Registry to perform these actions.**</mark>
{% endhint %}

Registry customisation is used when we want to define a new security classification custom field, and we want it to be an available facet in search.

See the below steps to get better understanding.

* Navigate to the **Aristotle Cloud Dashboard** from the left side menu.
* Click on **Registry Customisation**.

* Click on **'Custom Search Filters'.**
* Now click on **'New custom search filter'.**
* Let’s say you want to create a search facet for a custom field, such as **Sensitivity**, which is a choice field with options *Yes* or *No*.&#x20;
* Fill out the form according to your custom field settings. See the example below:

* In the screenshot above, you can see an example with fields such as *Name*, *Title*, *Short Name*, and *Filter Type* filled in or selected.&#x20;
* Check the *Facet* box to include this custom field in the search options.
* In the view template, you can copy the code from the example at the top of the screenshot and edit it to suit your needs.&#x20;
* The example code specifies that if the field is a custom field named *Sensitivity*, it will display 'Sensitive' as a facet when the value is 'Yes' and 'Not Sensitive' when the value is 'No or other.
* Then, save your changes.
* Now, when you search for any data asset that uses the custom field (e.g., *Sensitivity*), you will see it included as a facet in the search options.&#x20;
* For example, in the search below for the data asset '2020 Patient Experience Database,' the *Sensitivity* facet appears. It shows '4' in brackets, indicating there are four data assets marked as 'Not Sensitive.

* When a new facet is added to the search, we need to refresh the search and reindex it to ensure that it includes all new and existing assets.&#x20;
* Refer to the help documentation for instructions on how to reindex and refresh the search.<https://help.aristotlemetadata.com/administrator-tasks/task-runner/resolving-issues-with-the-search-function-using-reindex>
