Save and Share Searches in Omnisearch

We have added the capability to save searches in omnisearch and to share searches with other users in the Search Records section of the Dashboard.

Save Searches

There are two ways to save a search once a search has been performed.  The first is by simply bookmarking the URL after entering your search criteria and clicking 'GO'.  However, you can also use the Saved Searches option after entering your criteria so you can access at a later time.

Once clicked you can save the existing search with a desired label using the 'Save the current search' field and clicking 'save'.  Once saved they will appear in the lower section where you can select them or update/delete as needed.

Please note: this functionality is saved to the local browser search which means it will not be available on another browser when the user logs in, but you can share the search with another user who can save it to their browser.

Share Searches

You can also share a saved search with other users at your institution a couple ways.  The first is simply copy the URL after entering the search criteria and sharing. Or you can utilize the Share option once you're in the desired search which will provide the url.

Once you click on Share it will bring up a popup that has the URL that you can copy via the Copy URL link.  Once copied you can share that with users to use themselves as needed.

If you have any questions or need assistance please feel free to submit a support ticket.
