Manage saved searches

After performing a search or applying filters on the Assets page, you can create a saved search based on the settings you used. This way, you can quickly regenerate the same search at a later time or share the saved search with other users. A saved search is dynamic; when you select it, results are regenerated.

A saved search can be:

  • Private - these searches are only visible to the creator (and users and groups that the creator shares them with). By default, saved searches are private.

  • Public - these searches are available to all users. They are identified by the Public icon.

For existing saved searches, the following procedures can also be carried out from the My searches page. This page displays your saved searches and public saved searches. To access this page, on the menu bar, click Profile and settings avatar icon > My searches.

  1. On the menu bar, click Assets.
