Note

This section includes information about the new Fuse search. If you are currently using Fuse's legacy search, see Legacy search.

Filters can be applied to search results to refine them and make them more relevant. You can filter by item type, as well as popularity, recency and relevancy.  

Info

Although you can manually apply filters and facets to search results, Fuse may automatically apply filters using query snapping. For more information, see Knowledge Intelligence.

Filtering by type

The Filters section on the left-hand side of the search results, allows you to filter by item type. The Types filter is expanded by default when you first view the search results. In the Type list, you can see how many of each item type appears in the search results. For example, if there are 6 articles in the search results that match your entered keyword or phrase, you will see Articles (6).
