Searching in fields

When you perform a search, the search engine searches for your text in all fields, by default. On the Search page, you can then select fields, to reduce the scope of the search to only the fields you've selected.

Conversely, if you apply a search filter for which certain fields have been selected, you can clear one or all of the selected fields, to expand the scope of your search.

You select and deselect fields via the Search in fields dialog box.

In the following example image, six of 547 available fields have been selected. 37 fields have been loaded in the dialog box. If you scroll through the list of fields, more fields are loaded and the count is updated.

Tip When you scroll to show more fields, all attributes are shown first, in alphabetical order. Properties, such as Name, Comment and Tag appear at the very end of the list. Instead of scrolling through potentially hundreds of fields, you can use the search field in the dialog box to quickly find specific attributes and properties.

Note It's possible that you or another user created a search filter that includes a field or facet that no longer exists in your Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud environment. In this case, the invalid field or facet is highlighted, as shown in the following image, so that you can easily identify it and delete it from the search filter. Invalid fields and facets are ignored during search queries.
