Overview
A query is composed of terms and operators.
There are two types of terms:
A single term is a single word such as test or hello.
A sequence is a group of words surrounded by double quotes, such as "hello dolly".
To combine multiple terms into a complex query, you can use any of the following Boolean operators:
| Operator | Description |
|---|
AND | Intersection: Both terms are in the selected views (if nothing is added, AND is taken by default). |
OR | Union: Either term is contained in the selected views. |
- | Exclusion: The following term is not in the view. |
Autocomplete
Use the search bar’s autocomplete functionality to complete your queries with existing values.
Escape special characters
Searching on a facet value that contains special characters requires escaping or double quotes. The following characters are considered special: ?, >, <, :, =,", ~, /, and \ requires escaping with the \ character.
The same logic is applied to spaces within views facet names. Views facets should not contain spaces, but if they do, spaces must be escaped.
For example, if a facet is named user.first name, perform a facet search by escaping the space: @user.first\ name:myvalue.
Wildcards
To perform a multi-character wildcard search, use the * symbol. For example, @http.url:https:\/\/* matches every view that has a URL starting with https://.
Numerical values
Use <,>, <=, or >= to perform a search on numerical attributes. For example, retrieve all sessions with more than five errors: @session.error.count:>5.
You can search for a numerical attribute within a specific range. For example, retrieve all sessions with an error count between three and ten: @session.error.count:[3 TO 10].
Search examples
@view.url_path:"/department/sofas"- Searches all views containing
/department/sofas in the attribute @view.path. @view.url_path:\/department\/sofas\/*- Searches all views containing a value in
view.path attribute that start with /department/sofas/. @view.loading_time:[1s TO 3s] @view.url_path:\/department\/sofas\/*- Searches all views with a
loading_time between one and three seconds with a value in the @view.url_path attribute that starts with /department/sofas/.
Saved searches
Saved Views contain your search query, columns, sort order, time range, and facets.
