# NonGreedyMatch

A Boolean that specifies whether to return the shortest match. To configure Eduction Server to return the shortest match, set `NonGreedyMatch` to `True`. If two matches from two different entities start at the same word, and `NonGreedyMatch` is set to `True`, Eduction Server returns only the shortest match.

Setting this parameter to `True` implicitly disables the `AllowOverlaps` and `AllowMultipleResults` parameters. If you have set these parameters, `NonGreedyMatch` takes precedence.

For more information on how to configure the Eduction Server matching behavior using `NonGreedyMatch`, refer to IDOL Expert.

Note: If you set both the `NonGreedyMatch` configuration parameter and the `NonGreedyMatch` action, the action settings take precedence.
