Configure search result fields

Important  This feature is available only in the latest UI. However, in the classic UI, you can configure search result fields via → Fields directly on the search page. For more information, go to Search page.

You can specify which fields are shown in the body of search results on the search page and also define the sequence in which they are shown. A configured field is shown in a search result only if it contains a value. Additionally, if a field's value matches the searched text, that field is shown in the search result even if it isn't configured to be shown.

Note The configured search result fields are also applicable to Data Marketplace in Search but not to standalone Data Marketplace.

    The field you added appears in the BODY section. If, however, you added the custom field Status, it appears in the HEADER section.
    Tip You can add multiple fields.
  4. To change the position of a field, drag to the required position.
    Tip You can reposition the fields you added only within the same section. For example, if you add a field named Assignee, it appears in the BODY section. You can move this field around within the BODY section, but you can't move it to the HEADER or FOOTER section.
  5. To remove a field, click X next to it.
  6. Click Save.
