4. Enable N-value Encoding as per below screenshot. This setting would convert long format N-value to Encoded Format.
Example
Before Encoding
URL - /_/N-4294865570+104910
After Encoding
URL - /_/N-861Z8q7
5. Set dimension formatter under dimLocationFormatters. This is a list of dimensions value that can be part of URL. dimLocationFormatters get sets under navStateFormatter.
Note : User aggrERecFormatter for Aggregate/Rollup Query and erecFormatter for Record Details page.
Example - Suppose BrandFormatters added here and User selects any brand from guided navigation, Brand name would start coming on SEO URL.
