Specifiers to search in specific fields
30. April 2025
Note: The specifiers in this article can be used from FotoStation. They can also be used in FotoWeb when adding search filters to a FotoWeb archive and when adding search filters to an FotoWeb archive's access list.
For information about the search queries that can be used in FotoWeb, see Search expressions.
The specifiers below refer to file properties that fall outside the scope of the metadata configuration, but you can refer to them directly using special codes.
There are also operators available that can insert dynamic content in a field.
