In this article, you will learn how to use the search capabilities and customize the search results page to better suit your specific needs.

Search results page

Sort records

By default, the records on the search results page are sorted by relevance. This means that CluedIn prioritizes records that are most likely to match your search query closely. Sorting by relevance ensures that the most pertinent results are displayed at the top of the page, facilitating efficient data retrieval.

In addition to sorting by relevance, CluedIn provides two alternative sorting options:

• Sorting by new – choosing this option arranges records in descending order of their creation or modification date, with the most recently added or updated records appearing at the top.

• Sorting by old – choosing this option arranges records in ascending order of their creation or modification date, with the oldest records appearing at the top.

To sort records

1. On the search results page, select Filter.

2. In the upper-right corner of the Filters pane, expand the sorting dropdown menu, and then select the needed sorting option.

   

   The new sorting is applied to the records. You can hide the Filters pane by selecting .

Change page view

CluedIn provides two page view options:

• – tabular view that presents records in a structured table format. In this view, records are arranged in rows and columns, resembling a spreadsheet or database table.

• – tile view that presents records in a visual grid-like format. In this view, records are arranged in rectangular tiles, each representing a specific record.

To change the page view

• In the upper-right corner of the search results page, select the needed page view option.

  

  The new view is applied to the search results page.

Saved searches help you quickly retrieve a set of records that meet specific filter criteria. You can share the search with everybody else in the organization or just keep it to yourself.

To save a search

2. Enter the name of the search.

3. If you want to make this search available to everybody in your organization, turn on the toggle next to Shared.

4. Select Save.

   

   The search is saved in CluedIn. Now, you can use it when you need to quickly find a specific set of records or when you want to clean those records.
