Local search only searches the list of objects for the particular object page you are on.

Local search provides three search options:

  • prefix - wildcard placed before the search string. If you do not add any wildcard, the search type will be prefix search by default.

  • infix - wildcard placed within the search string.

  • suffix - wildcard placed at the end of the search string.

Here is an example of how the wildcard search works. Let's say we want to search within the following text:

eu.network.com
networking.com
ams.network.com
fiber_network_details

Prefix search: When searching with the query network, search will generate a match only for networking.com. Without specifying the wildcard, the type of search is a prefix by default. 

Prefix, suffix and infix search: a query *network*  will generate  a hit for all texts with the word network. All the entries specified above will be listed. By using all the three types of search, we can get a more accurate result for the search string.
