Every time a file or folder is changed, we add those words to the index in a process called indexing. You can also bookmark that URL using your browser – each time you visit that bookmark the search is executed.īox has a secure index for content much like the index in the back of a textbook.Each time you click that link – the same search is executed! In the address field paste the address that you copied from the search. Then navigate to the All Files page, click on + New in the header and then click on New Bookmark. When you’ve conducted a search that you want to save, just copy the URL into the clipboard.The two options to save a query are via Box’s bookmark capability or via the browser’s bookmarking feature: This makes saving a search query much easier.After you initiate a search, the search query term and any filters are encoded as part of the URL – even the filters such as Date Modified are preserved.

To preserve search performance, long queries (for example many words/tokens or many characters) may be truncated.

For example:Ī search for marketing NOT BoxWorks returns a result that has only marketing within its text. NOT returns items that contain the first search term but not the second.Using this operator is not necessary as we implicitly interpret multi-word queries as OR unless another supported Boolean term is used. For example:Ī search for marketing OR BoxWorks returns a result that has either marketing or BoxWorks within its text. OR returns items that contain either of the search terms.It does not return a result that only has BoxWorks in its text. For example:Ī search for marketing AND BoxWorks returns a result that has both marketing and BoxWorks within its text. AND returns items that contain both the search terms.The operators are AND, OR, and NOT. Please note that we do not support lower case (that is, "and", "or", and "not") or mixed case (that is, "And", "Or", and "Not") operators. You can use Boolean operators in your search. For example: A search for "Blue-Box" may return search results including the sequence "blue.box", "Blue Box", and "Blue-Box" any item containing the words "Blue" and "Box" consecutively. Instead, they return matches based on phrases, that is, word sequences. Note: Exact searches do not return search matches based on specific character sequences. Use double quotes (“ “) to search for exact matches on phrases. Note: Search suggestions are available when the web page language is set to English. Click on the suggestion to execute a new query for the correctly spelled word.Box’s search engine suggests an alternative “did you mean” search option for incorrectly spelled terms.Use search suggestions to find alternatives for incorrectly spelled search terms. Use the drop-downs at the top of the screen to filter by file type, file size, date modified, file owner, or custom metadata. You can also set filters after viewing all search results from the search results page. Under the Metadata tab, you can filter results using custom metadata fields. Under the Content Filters tab, you can filter results by file type, date modified, and file owner. To open the filter menu, click the Search Options icon on the right side of the search bar. Use filters to narrow down your search results: Based on your enterprise settings, the results themselves may differ as well.

Note: the order of results in the drop-down may vary from the full results page. If you would like to see all the results for your search query or if you don’t see the file or folder you are looking for, press Enter/Return on your keyboard or click See all results at the bottom of the list of suggested results. If one of the suggested results is the item you need, simply click on it to be taken to it directly. As you begin typing, suggested results will appear below the search bar.
