Filtering Results

After searching via Simple Search or Advanced Search you can further filter your search results to reduce the number of off-target hits to your search interest.

1. Open the filter menu by clicking the Filter button on the top right above your search results.

2. You will find some columns/metadata fields and available values for that column. Each value comes with a count of how many hits contain that value.

3. Apply a filter by clicking on the value.The results will update to fit the selected filter. Applied filters will be highlighted in orange. To deselect a filter click it again.

4. Clicking the name of a column will open an input field to search through the values of this column.

5. Currently we provide filter options for about 22 columns/metadata fields. You can find the list of all available columns by clicking the arrows on the right. Here you can toggle any column you like to be shown on the left side. Columns that do not hold any values are not tickable.

We plan to extend the available filtering columns as well as add fields with range values. If you wish for a specific field to be available as a filter, feel free to let us know!
