Committee documents and advanced search

Committee documents search

The committee search enables you to search documents within a specific committee or working group. From the committee home page click on Committee documents.

From the side panel, tick the relevant criteria to filter the committee documents list.

Advanced search

The Advanced search allows you to search for documents across your different committees.

Queue view vs filter view

When viewing the results of a search, you can switch to Queue View. This allows you to list your search results on the left side of the screen and preview them all. To go back to the filter view, click on the Switch to Filter view icon.

Wildcards and search operators

The Boolean operators and wildcards can be used on full-text search and exact match fields:

• AND: all the words separated by the operator must be in the found documents. This is the default operator of all full-text search fields, so you actually just need your keywords and the AND operator is implied. 
• -: The keyword after this symbol must not be in the found documents. Example: you are looking for all the documents referring to the Nuxeo but not about meetings. Type Nuxeo -meeting.

  You need to keep the  - stuck to the word to be excluded. If you put a space between the - and the word after it, the - is ignored.

• OR: any of the word before "OR" or the word after it must be in the found documents. Example: you are looking for documents that talk either about marketing or about sales. Type marketing OR sales.
• double quotes (""): the exact expression between quotes must be in the found documents. Example: you are looking for documents that have the sentence "copyright Nuxeo". Type "copyright Nuxeo".
• *: this symbol replaces zero or more characters. Example: you are looking for documents having meeti- sites as a source (such as meet, meets, meeting, etc). Type  wik* in the Source field of the advanced search or committee documents form.
