Searching report data

You can search for specific issues or information within each report's results. For example, you might want to find all the issues within a certain directory of the Page URL. Or you might want to track a particular issue throughout your remediation process; enter the Issue ID in the Search tab to locate it within the relevant report.

Before you begin

Note: You must understand the following information:
  • Searching is a type of report filter.
  • The results are filtered based on your search parameter, and the list of filters is updated to include the search parameters. All previously defined filters still apply.
  • Search terms are case-sensitive.
  • The following wildcards are supported:
    • * (asterisk): any string of zero or more characters
    • The escape character is a backslash (\). You can search on a string which includes the * (asterisk) as an actual character rather than a wildcard.
