How to Use Search

The search feature allows you to filter results by searching for text across all or specific fields. Choose between ?q= or ?search= parameter names.

1. Basic Search

Search across all text fields:

2. Search Specific Fields

Field-Specific Search

💡 Pro Tips

  • •Search is case-insensitive and performs partial matching
