Use the Search Bar to Find Your Content

Use the search bar to search for the content you're interested in using search terms, content types, and search tags.

Note:

You can use advanced search commands in combination with search terms to refine your search results for exact matches, multi-term matches, and field-level matches. See Search Options.

  2. Click in the search bar for a drop-down list of all content types, such as workbook, dashboard, report, watchlist connection, or model. Click a content type to add it to the search bar. For example:
    • Click Workbook to display visualization content
    • Click Dashboard or Analysis to display reporting content
    • Click Report to display pixel-perfect reporting content
    • Click Watchlist to display visualization cards grouped in watchlists
    • Click an option in the Data category to display connections, datasets, data flows, machine learning models, and other data-related content.
    • To narrow your search, add a free text search term to the search bar. For example, if you've searched on Workbooks, enter 'My Web Analysis' to display a workbook named My Web Analysis.
  3. Add or remove search tags to your search term.
    • Enter 'type:' or 'filter:' to display a list of search tags that you can select from.
    • Paste in 'type:' or 'filter:' followed by one search term (not case-sensitive). For example:
      • Paste type:connection to find your connections. Or, paste type:workbook to find your workbooks.
      • Paste filter:recent to display your recently accessed content. Paste filter:favorites to find content that you've marked as a favorite.

        You can combine the filter command with the type command. For example, paste in type:workbook filter:recent.

  4. To clear your search terms, in the search bar click X or select search tags and press delete.
