Searching for Records

Specific database records can be searched for by using either the Filtering Options side panel or by searching for a specific keyword within the record.

The search panel at the top of the page allows you to search for keywords that will be matched in either the record title or other searchable fields within the record. Once you start searching, relevant results will instantly display.

Below is a demonstration of how to search within a database.

Searchable Fields

The following field types are searchable using the main search bar within a database:

• Open Text
• Files added to Upload fields (by file name only)
• Sequence ID
• Record UUID
• Website
• Phone
• Email
• Number
• Currency

Other field types (i.e. select/dropdown fields, lookup fields, etc) can be filtered within the filter side panel.

Things to Note

• Results will instantly filter out on the page. The order they appear in is set by the relevance of the results.
• The search match icon (magnifying glass) appears on each result. Click the icon to see where the keyword was matched.
• The search count above the record display will indicate how many records match your search term.

Clearing your Search

To clear your search and return to your usual view, click the cross in the search bar. Note that if you navigate to another database, this search will not automatically be applied there.

You can also filter your records based on values within the form. You can read more about that here.
