Search for Content
Search for assets whose name, asset ID, or external ID contains a keyword by typing one or more word(s) in the search box that appears in the portal's upper-right hand corner.
By default, search results are sorted by creation date, starting with the most recently created asset.
The currently selected item in the side navigation tab determines what will be searched:
-
All Content: Search results are limited to your assets.
-
Playlists: Search results are limited to the assets associated with the currently selected playlist.
You may also search for assets when adding them to a playlist. By default, those search results are limited to your assets. However, you may limit search results to a specific library by selecting it from the Library option.
-
Library: Search results are limited to the currently selected library.
-
Shared Library: Search results are limited to the currently selected shared library.
By default, a search result must match at least one whole word defined within your search phrase.
Use a wildcard to search for partial words. For example searching forbasketwill only return search results that contain the wordbasket, while searching forbasket*will also return search results that containbasketsandbasketball.
