# [Search check list component](../../../lib/content-services/src/lib/search/components/search-check-list/search-check-list.component.ts "Defined in search-check-list.component.ts")
Implements a checklist [widget](../../../lib/testing/src/lib/core/pages/form/widgets/widget.ts) for the [Search Filter component](search-filter.component.md).

## Basic usage
```json
{
"search": {
"categories": [
{
"id": "checkList",
"name": "Check List",
"enabled": true,
"component": {
"selector": "check-list",
"pageSize": 5,
"settings": {
"operator": "OR",
"allowUpdateOnChange": true,
"options": [
{ "name": "Folder", "value": "TYPE:'cm:folder'" },
{ "name": "Document", "value": "TYPE:'cm:content'" }
]
}
}
}
]
}
}
```
### Settings
| Name | Type | Description |
| ---- | ---- | ----------- |
| operator | `string` | Logical operator to combine query fragments. Can be 'AND' or 'OR'. |
| options | `array` | Array of objects with `name` and `value` properties. Each object defines a checkbox, labelled with `name`, that adds the query fragment in `value` to the query when enabled. |
| allowUpdateOnChange | `boolean` | Enable/Disable the update fire event when text has been changed. By default is true. |
| hideDefaultAction | boolean | Show/hide the [widget](../../../lib/testing/src/lib/core/pages/form/widgets/widget.ts) actions. By default is false. |
## Details
This [widget](../../../lib/testing/src/lib/core/pages/form/widgets/widget.ts) displays a list of checkboxes, each of which toggles a particular query fragment
in the search. See the [Search filter component](search-filter.component.md) for full details of how to use the widgets
in a search query.
In the settings, the `options` array, defines the checkboxes that toggle the supplied query
fragments and the `operator` selects logical `AND` or `OR` to combine the fragments.
In the example above, if the user checks both boxes then the following fragment will be added
to the query:
```text
... (TYPE:'cm:folder' OR TYPE:'cm:content') ...
```
The component can be set to split a long checklist into separate pages of checkboxes
using the `pageSize` value as the number of boxes to show per page (default is 5).
When there is more than one page, the [widget](../../../lib/testing/src/lib/core/pages/form/widgets/widget.ts) will display "Show more" and "Show less"
buttons as appropriate.
A "Clear all" button is also displayed at the bottom of the [widget](../../../lib/testing/src/lib/core/pages/form/widgets/widget.ts) to clear all checked
items in the list.
