When a user searches for a term that Glean interprets as a spelling mistake (e.g.: onfluence instead of confluence), Glean automatically spell-corrects and re-runs the query (i.e: never searches for onfluence, instead only searching for confluence).
- Even valid, intentionally-misspelled resources that are indexed or pinned will automatically have their spelling corrected.
- The only way to force an exact search for a word that is being autocorrected is to use quotes.
Suggested Change:
- Mirroring Google search results, surface the "misspelling" at the top of Search so that users better understand their results (e.g.: "These are results for confluence. Search instead for onfluence.") This aligns Glean's behavior with familiar web search patterns, improving usability and reducing surprise.
