Metadata refinement display in SharePoint 2013

Question

I created a Site Column in my CT Hub that is a multi-value metadata field called ClientProjectType. When I create the Managed Property in Search, I set as a text value and select the multi-value property. After crawling, I add the field as a refiner. However, it shows values in this pattern: ID;Title|GUID.

I need the display to be Title. How do you resolve?

Answer 1

You probably have the wrong crawled property mapped. In my case the site column was named Loan Type and that created the following 4 crawled properties

• Loan Type
• Loan_x0020_Type
• ows_Loan_x0020_Type
• ows_taxId_Loan_x0020_Type

I selected ows_Loan_x0020_Type and did a full crawl and it worked.
