Using the Query builder
The Query builder is designed to help you create search queries visually, without needing to know complex syntax. It’s particularly useful if you want to filter assets or configure workflow triggers.
Query builder supports AND, OR, and NOT logical operators. It is not designed for complex, nested queries, but is intended to help users build valid queries without having to use syntax.
Key capabilities:
- Supports logical operators: AND, OR, and basic negation.
- Allows field-value pairs for metadata-based filtering.
- Handles wildcards and simple logical expressions.
- You cannot use dynamic tags in quick searches; they only apply in workflow contexts.
Workflow triggers: Define which assets enter a workflow based on metadata.
Search and filter: Quickly locate assets in pools or external sources.
Testing queries: Recommended to validate queries on smaller datasets before applying broadly.
- Select a value from the Field dropdown list.
- Select a value from the Operator dropdown list and enter a value.
- To add a condition, select Add condition. You can add as many conditions as you need. (check)
Select And or Or, and then select the values for Field, Operator, and Value. - Select Verify to verify your entries.
- Select Insert query to insert the query into the search query text field.
