| Syntax | Query Handling |
|---|---|
| Wildcard (*) search | Global search treats all characters you enter as literals. When you enter a key word in the search field, global search automatically escapes all reserved characters and adds a wildcard character before and after the key word, except for IPv4 addresses and dates. For example, if you want to find resources that contain the string sta, just enter sta rather than sta*, *sta, or *sta*. Global search will add the wildcard character (*) and perform the search for *sta*. |
| IPv4 addresses | When you enter a full or partial string of an IPv4 address, global search returns IPv4 addresses that match the entry. For example, if you enter 192.1680, global search returns all IPv4 addresses that contain the partial string of 192.1680. If you enter 192.1680.302.400, global search returns all resources that contain the IPv4 address in them. Note that global search does not add the wildcard characters to IPv4 addresses. |
| Date format | Global search supports this date format: YYYY-MM-DD. For example, you can enter 2021-01-10 and global search returns all resources that were created or updated on the date of 2021-01-10. Note that global search does not add the wildcard characters to date entries in YYYY-MM-DD format. |
| Regex and reserved characters | Global search treats all characters you enter as literals before adding the wildcard characters to them. For example, if you enter -status, global search looks for resources that contain -status by searching for *-status*. The reserved character - will be escaped instead of being treated as an exclusion. Reserved characters include the following: \ + - = && || > < ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ ~ * ? : / and the whitespace character |
| The double quote characters ("") | Global search treats all entries within the double quote characters ("") as one single string. For example, if you enter "system* 123", global search looks up resources that contain the string "system* 123" by searching *"system* 123"*. |
| The space or whitespace character | Global search treats all entries between the space or whitespace characters as separate strings. For example, if you enter the following: && active \OR stat AND 192.1680.102.20 0 2021-01-10 [2020-02-20], global search returns resources that contain any of the following using the OR operation: *&&* *active* *\OR* *stat* *AND* 192.1680.102.200 2021-01-10 *[2020-02-20]* |
| Logical operations | In this release, global search applies only the logical OR operation while handling multiple strings. If you include multiple strings or entries in your search, global search uses the OR operation to perform the search. For example, if you enter baremetal 192.1680, global search considers baremetal and 192.1680 as separate strings and returns all resources that contain baremetal, as well as resources that contain 192.1680, which can match any IPv4 addresses that contain 192.1680. |
