Searching

The best way to find content in M-Files is with the search. There are a few ways to do a search:

  • If you know the vault in which the content is, you can use the quick search, advanced search, or a combination of both. Your search filters remain intact when you move between the different search functions.
  • If you are not sure of the vault, you can use global search to search in all vaults that you have access to.

If you cannot find what you are looking for with your search, you can use the Search filters side panel to further filter the search results. The panel is shown on the left side of the user interface after your search. Your M-Files admin has configured the search filters in the panel for you.
