Brief summary of this article:
Please use Search to find an entity by keyword, combination of words, or ID. The Search box can be found in the top menu.
Type the keyword or expression into the Search field and press Enter. Alternatively, try to refine your results: change the keyword or phrase for more precise matching (using special syntax when needed), or apply filters by entity type, state, team, or project.
By default, Search shows you results from all Projects and Teams that you are a member of.
In the search results page, click entity ID or Name to navigate to the entity.
You can quickly return to search results from the entity view:
Quick Find by ID
To quickly jump to a specific entity with a known numeric ID, just type the number and press Enter. If you need to find the same numeric value, please use double quotes for it.
Search syntax
If you don’t see what you are searching for, please try an extended search syntax. Our search engine supports the following special characters:
| Operation | Example | Meaning |
| + | keyword1 + keyword2 | AND operation. Searches for documents with both words included. |
| | | keyword1 | keyword2 | OR operation. Searches for documents with at least one of these words included. |
| "" | "Exact phrase" | Exact match. Finds all documents with the exact phrase from the search query. |
| * | key* | Template search. Finds all words starting with “key”. |
| ~ | word~5 | Signifies a level of fuzziness.
Fuzziness is interpreted as a Levenshtein Edit Distance — the number of one character changes that need to be made to one string to make it the same as another string. |
Advanced Filters for text matching
Some sophisticated text patterns cannot be found using the normal search window. In such cases, it is recommended to create a view and apply one of the Advanced Filters by keywords and text patterns to its setup.
To find entities by other criteria, please use views instead of using the Search box. Open an existing view from the left menu or create a new view. Apply Basic filters or Advanced filters to the view setup to perform your search.
Source fields
Global Search scans the following fields of Targetprocess entities:
- Name
- Description
