# Core Concepts

- [Display Rules](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/display-rules.md): Display Rules control how every Location looks on your map — what appears, how it looks, and at which zoom levels.
- [Configuring Display Rules](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/display-rules/configuring-display-rules.md)
- [User Roles](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/editor.md): The MapsIndoors CMS uses two roles to control access: Administrator and Editor. Your role determines what you can see and change across the CMS.
- [Data Concepts](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/markdown.md)
- [Location Categories](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/interactive-blocks.md): Categories are a way to group Locations across your map regardless of their Location Type.
- [Location Types](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/integrations.md): Location Types group Locations of the same kind and control their default appearance on the map.
- [Custom Properties](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/custom-properties.md): Attach structured metadata to Locations, Buildings, and Venues using key-value pairs.
- [Searchability](https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts/searchability.md): Searchability controls whether a Location shows up when users search your map.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.mapsindoors.com/cms/core-concepts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
