Define a new synonym dictionary and link it to a search profile.

## Before you begin

Role required: ais_admin

## About this task

To make a synonym dictionary affect search behavior, you must link it to a search profile, either at creation time or afterward. To learn about linking a saved dictionary to a search profile, see [Link a synonym dictionary to a search profile](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/TYKBOG~WaGKCZ5onXsG48g "Link an existing synonym dictionary to one or more search profiles.").

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAI SearchSearch ExperienceSearch Profiles.
2. Open the search profile that you want to link the new synonym dictionary to.
3. In the Synonyms related list, select Create and Link.
4. On the Dictionary form, fill in the fields.  
   For a description of the field values, see [Dictionary form](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/cBf~dSiwSl~dcrmXca7Rwg "The Dictionary form enables you to create a typo handling, stop word, or synonym dictionary for use in your AI Search search profiles.").
5. Select Submit.

## Result

The new synonym dictionary appears in the Synonyms related list.

## What to do next

To make new or updated synonym dictionary settings take effect, publish the search profile that you edited. For details on publishing a search profile, see [Publish an AI Search search profile](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/6n5GxXOrvQj5LE5pl1XGxg "Publish a search profile to make pending changes to its settings take effect in linked search applications.").
