Filters with RefinableYesNo Managed Properties

[sympmarc]

Version used
Ex: 4.14.0

Describe the bug
When using a RefinableYes/No managed property as a filter, there are two issues:

• The display of the filter shows False and True instead of No or Yes
• Apply a filter (choosing True or False) returns no results.

To Reproduce
Detailed steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Map a Yes/No crawled property to one of the RefinableYesNo Managed Properties (I tried both the ows_IsPolicy and OWS_Q_BOOL_ISPOLICY options)
2. Add a filter using the RefinableYes/No MP
3. Try filtering

Expected behavior
Filtering should work

This relates to #3998. As it's actually a data issue and not web part issue I'm note sure I want to fix it here. I did reach out to the service team but haven't heard anything back, but will ping them.

[sympmarc]

I only last week figured out those RefinableYesNoxx MPs existing. Should it work properly with RefinableString? (I can't remember ever trying with Yes/No columns.)

[wobba]

@sympmarc string should work.. and check what the actual string value is.

[kasperbolarsen]

@sympmarc can you check your findings again using v.4.16? I get the true/false texts in the Refiner, but they works as expected for me.

[sympmarc]

@kasperbolarsen - Which do you want me to test? The RefinableYesNo MP or RefinableString?

[kasperbolarsen]

RefinableYesNo

[sympmarc]

Yes, it seems to work in 4.16. Was it fixed in #3998 ?

It still says True/False, but the filtering seems to work. Given it's a Yes/No, it feels like it should use those strings instead.

I am working on localized values for the supported languages
