Using 3DSearch

In the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, the search tool is called 3DSearch.

With 3DSearch, you can:

  • Perform a simple full-text search
  • Control the display of search results
  • Restrict the search scope, using Search in Current Tab.
  • Refine your query with filters, using Advanced Search or 6WTags.
  • Start predefined queries, using Type Shortcuts
  • Restrict the search scope to preferred object types

Important: Users granted with specific roles and licenses might have access to additional search capabilities, corresponding to the features available in the portfolio. For example, they can do the following:
  • 360° view of items
  • Customize the search results display
  • Search by similarity
  • Expand and search on the product structure,
  • Search based on geographic or volume filtering
  • Roll up information on a graph of items
These capabilities are not included in the Collaborative Business Innovator and Collaborative Industry Innovator roles.
