Search

Content is automatically indexed when it is created, modified, or uploaded in Cloud CMS. The index is across the Content properties and any attached file eg Word, PDF,..

Platform

At Platform level you can search for Content across all projects subject to your access permissions.

Project

Search at Project level provides a search restricting the scope to the project:

Search Options

For Search at Project and Platform levels there are options to filter the search, save the search, and export the results.

Search Filter

After entering a Search Keyword the search results will be displayed. This can further be filtered with the search filter

Save Search

A Search can be saved for future use.

In addition, the search results can be Configured. The Columns button will allow the user to name and select properties for the search results

which will display the last name and first name properties, specific width and title, and even selecting one property to be a link.

Export Search Results

A useful utility is the ability to export the Search results for use outside of Cloud CMS.
