Search Operators

Operators act as restrictions on the search. As more operators are added to the same query string, they further restrict the returned results.

name:'NAME'

Matches projects that have exactly the name 'NAME'.

prefix:'PREFIX'

Matches projects that have a name that starts with 'PREFIX' (may be case-sensitive, depending on which index backend is used).

substring:'SUBSTRING'

Matches projects that have a name that contains 'SUBSTRING' (case-insensitive).

parent:'PARENT'

Matches projects that have 'PARENT' as parent project.

inname:'NAME'

Matches projects that a name part that starts with 'NAME' (case insensitive).

description:'DESCRIPTION'

Matches projects whose description contains 'DESCRIPTION', using a full-text search.

state:'STATE'

Matches project’s state. Can be either 'active' or 'read-only'.

Magical Operators

is:visible

Magical internal flag to prove the current user has access to read the projects and all the refs. This flag is always added to any query.

limit:'CNT'

Limit the returned results to no more than 'CNT' records. This is automatically set to the page size configured in the current user’s preferences. Including it in a web query may lead to unpredictable results with regards to pagination.
