I have structure of collection like that:

  1. Col1
    • colA
      -col!
      -col@
    • colB
      -col!
      -col@
  2. col2
    • colA
    • colB
  3. col3

When i chose in windows app e.g. col1 and type something in searchbar it search only in col1, but it schould search cal1-colA, col1-colA-col!, col1-colA-col@, col1-colB… too.

similar is in android app and in browser extension.

Currently, if I have a nested collection structure like this:

Client/SiteName/Device

And I want to search for e.g. a particular “Device” entry, if I have selected the Client level, nothing will turn up in the search. I have to drill down to each sub-Collection to perform the search. This is ok (ish) if I know which Site I need to search anyway, but breaks down if I’m not sure which Site the Device might be at.

It would be extremely useful if selecting a particular Collection then performing a search worked like “All Items”, but restricted or filtered to that particular parent Collection.

Thanks!

@nosaj Welcome to the forum!

I moved your post into this existing Feature Request (FR) to the same topic.

Note: I also changed the title of this topic to reflect the used language and to make it more clear (though I’m not sure it’s the best new title either…). Before, the title was “Search in all child collection not only in selected one”.
