When you submit a search term, it will apply to all assets stored in Curator. You can also use search operators in the Quick Search bar to refine your search.
For example, you might want to search for assets with a title or metadata that includes the following:
Operator | Example description | Example search |
|---|---|---|
AND | Only assets that have both escalator and down in the title or metadata will be returned. | escalator AND down |
OR | Only assets that have either escalator or down in the title or metadata will be returned. | escalator OR down |
NOT | Only assets that have escalator but not down in the title or metadata will be returned. | escalator NOT down |
“ “ (speech marks) | Only assets that have the uninterrupted and separated text (string) Extreme Sports in full in the title or metadata will be returned. | "extreme sports" |
-(negative) | Only assets that contain 'Extreme Sport' but not 'Rock Climbing' in the title or metadata will be returned. | "Extreme Sport" AND -"Rock Climbing" |
* (wildcard) | Only assets with a word starting with 'educat' (for example education, educator, educational or educating) in the title or metadata will be returned. | educat* |
