Question

You need to configure filtering for the Product page. Which filtering option should you use?

Options

Aproducts/pages/products.aspx?productID=&.productCategory=
Bproducts.aspx;productID;productCategory; lucernepubltshing.com
Cproducts; productID; productCategory; lucernepublishing.com
Dproducts/pages/products.aspx?*
EproductID;productCategory

Explanation

URL parameter-based content filtering in SharePoint requires specifying only the parameter names, not full URLs or domain names.

Common mistakes.

A. Including the full URL path with wildcard values conflates URL routing syntax with filter parameter definition syntax, which are distinct configuration concerns.
B. Appending a domain name alongside the page path and parameters is not valid filtering syntax and incorrectly mixes network addressing with content filter configuration.
C. Including 'lucernepublishing.com' as part of the filter expression is incorrect because domain names are not part of the parameter-based filter syntax and would cause the filter configuration to fail.
D. Using only the URL path with a trailing wildcard does not identify specific parameters to filter on and is too coarse to drive targeted category- or ID-based content filtering.

Concept tested. SharePoint URL query string parameter filtering configuration syntax
