Scopes

The default data in each view page is determined by the filters that are configured for the view by a System Administrator. Any additional filtering that you perform is called the scope of the view.

You apply a scope when you:

  • Search within a search result

  • Switch search methods from a saved search

  • Switch search methods within a project folder

  • Search for items related to items in the search result

When a scope is active, it is indicated by a red Current Filter bar shown in top of the navigation pane.

ClosedRefine a Scope

    • If you click Yes, the current scope is added as a level to any previous scope.

    • If you click No, the new scope will replace the previous scope.
