Search Bar Locations
Info |
---|
Note: Not all product documentation is publicly available, and some, like MRM (TV Platform), SFX, and others require a successful login in order for the search feature to include the associated documentation. |
Search can be conducted in two general locations within the FreeWheel Hub:
Global Search
Global search
in theis a universal search bar located on the top right of every page within the Hub: Searching within this search bar opens a widget which provides
detailedadvanced filtering options (please read below).
Without proper filtering, this global search bar will include search results for all content within the FreeWheel Hub which you have access to (including
allpublicly available materials).
If you do not see content in your search in which you have approved access, please login first.FreeWheel does not recommend this approach for most users, who typically focus on a singular FreeWheel product.

Tip: FreeWheel strongly recommends filtering any |
global search by the specific product space(s) of interest only. To do so, refer to instructions and screenshot below:

Local Search
Local search within each Hub space's left navigation bar: Searching within a specific Hub space's left navigation bar will include search results for content within the Hub space only. For example, the search bar in the image below will only search within the "Releases" space.

Filtering is helpful in narrowing search results to exactly the content you're looking for. The table below outlines the different filter functions available.

Search Syntax
The Hub has a search syntax that can be utilized to narrow and refine search results. It's important to note that the search ignores common words (e.g. "the" or "an") even when utilizing the syntax below. The table below outlines the accepted syntax, as well as its function.
For more information see Confluence Search Syntax.

Additional Resources
Searching Archived Materials (TV Platform only)
In an effort to clean up search results, we've moved older release notes to a Release Archive. By default, Release Notes that are at least two years old will no longer appear in global search results. The Release Notes will remain searchable by using the search bar located on the homepage of the archive.
