Search Tips (click to expand)
- To focus your search, click the filter button to the right of the search field and select a search filter.
- Multiple search terms find topics with one or more of the terms, and each term gets a different highlight color.
-
For an exact multi-word search, enclose the set of terms within quotes to form a single string:
work
also findsworkspace
, but"work"
excludesworkspace
.request
also findsrequests
andrequesting
, but"request"
excludes them.configuration
also finds topics withconfiguring
, but"configuration"
excludes them.
- To customize your search further, add an operator (
and
,not
,or
) between search terms:configuration and settings
narrows your search and only finds topics that contain bothconfiguration
andsettings
.configuration not settings
widens your search and finds topics that containconfiguration
but notsettings
, topics that containsettings
but notconfiguration
, and excludes topics that contain both.configuration or settings
widens your search and finds topics that containconfiguration
orsettings
and also topics that contain bothconfiguration
andsettings
.- If your search contains an operator that you want to use as a word, enclose the phrase in quotes to tell search not to use it as an operator. For example,
not required
will return a search format error, but "not required
" finds topics that containnot required
.
- You can search for any string on a page with
Command-F
on Mac orCTRL+F
on Windows.
