About Search

The search action finds all records in the platform that match specified keywords. Users can create simple keyword searches or build advanced search criteria to locate records in Objects.

Considerations
  • In general, you'll use a Search to find a specific record. To view a set of records, explore the View Filter options.
  • Improve search speed and performance by configuring Search Fields to create an index for the object

  • The Calendar and Reports objects are excluded from Search
