Choose the Search option at the bottom of the modal to open the full Universal Search page.
From here you can refine and scope your search:
- Use the Search (A) field at the top to adjust your query
- Add or remove Material Families (B) to narrow or broaden results
- Use the Project (C) field to limit results to a specific project
Beneath, you can also use the checkboxes to include only the types you care about. Available types include:
- Projects
- Metadata
- Outputs
- Calculations
- ML jobs
- Approvals
- Experiments
- Input lots
- Notebooks
- Lab requests
- Measurement metadata
Turn on Enable Fuzzy Search (D) to include close matches that aren’t exact string matches. This can help surface relevant results when you’re unsure of exact naming.
All matching results appear at the bottom of the page, updated as you change your query and filters. Note that Universal Search will search the contents of rich‑text attachments in notebooks, including spreadsheets, Word documents, and rich‑text PDFs.
