Search

Search is available in the application and on the documentation portal. It helps quickly find articles, sections, and content fragments across the entire space or within a selected scope.

How Search Works

• Ranking. Results where the query appears in the article title or headings are shown higher.

• Partial word search. Matches can be found by incomplete words.

• Transliteration and keyboard layout. Queries with incorrect keyboard layout or transliteration are supported.

• Typos. Errors at the beginning or end of a word usually do not affect search results.

• Speed. Search and indexing are optimized for faster results.

Search Scope

The search window offers the following scopes:

• In all catalogs.

• In this catalog.

• In this section.

  

To search within a specific article or section, use Search in this article or Search in this section from the article or section menu — the search window will open with the scope already selected.

On the documentation portal, search within a folder is limited to that folder by default. Switch to All catalogs if needed.

Refining a Query

• Exact match. To search for an exact phrase, enclose it in quotation marks.

• Exclusion. To exclude a word or phrase from results, add - before it.

• Required words. To ensure a word is always included in results, add + before it.

• Article search phrases. In article settings, specify search phrases: if a user enters them, the article will appear above other results.

Filters

• By properties. If properties are configured in the catalog, results can be filtered by their values.

  

• By attachments. In Gramax Enterprise Server, search within the content of attached PDF and DOCX files is available.

  

Search Results

• Article path. Search takes the full navigation path of an article into account.

• Jump to match. After clicking a result, the article opens at the location of the match.

• Diagrams. Search includes text inside Diagrams.net, Mermaid, and PlantUML diagrams, and groups results from the same diagram into one block.

• State preservation. The search term entered in the in-article search box is preserved until the article is closed.
