# Search Results
|
|
|
|
When you type queries into the Search Input component, the application will return the Search Results in a page. From the search results page you can open files and perform various actions depending on the permissions available for the selected item.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This page consists of the following ADF components:
|
|
|
|
- [Search Filter](https://www.alfresco.com/abn/adf/docs/content-services/components/search-filter.component/)
|
|
- [Search Chip List](https://www.alfresco.com/abn/adf/docs/content-services/components/search-chip-list.component/)
|
|
- [Search Sorting Picker](https://www.alfresco.com/abn/adf/docs/content-services/components/search-sorting-picker.component/)
|
|
- [Document List](https://www.alfresco.com/abn/adf/docs/content-services/components/document-list.component/) with custom layout template
|
|
- [Info Drawer](/features/info-drawer) with Metadata and [Version Management](#version-manager)
|
|
- [Toolbar with basic actions](/features/document-list-layout#actions-and-the-actions-toolbar) like `Preview`, `Download`, `Favorite`, `Copy`, etc.
|
|
|
|
And also the Info Drawer, Toolbar and Node Selector dialogs for copy and move operations.

## Search Queries and Precise Searching
|
|
|
|
You can customize the queries to get better results.
|
|
|
|
Given that, no colon ":" suffixes the term, then the default query is constructed for text searches. The default query is:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
(cm:name:"[term]*" OR cm:title:"[term]*" OR cm:description:"[term]*" OR TEXT:"[term]*" OR TAG:"[term]*")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that compared to Share the following defaults are removed from ACA:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
OR ia:whatEvent:"[term]*" OR ia:descriptionEvent:"[term]*" OR lnk:title:"[term]*" OR lnk:description:"[term]*"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Key facts
|
|
|
|
1. If you have entered more than one word into the search input box, then the search query is constructed automatically using an `AND` operation.
|
|
|
|
2. If you have entered more than one word encapsulated in quotation marks, then the search query is constructed treated everything as a single string.
|
|
|
|
3. If you have entered more than one word separated by `AND`, then the search query is constructed using an `AND` conjunction. Since `AND` is the default operator (see fact 1), the explicit `AND` keywords are removed when the search input value is processed.
|
|
|
|
4. If you have entered more than one word separated by `OR`, then the search query is constructed using an `OR` disjunction. Unlike `AND`, the `OR` operators are preserved when processing the search input value because `OR` is not the default operator.
|
|
|
|
5. If you have entered an `=` symbol before the search term, then the search query is constructed using exact term matching. **Note:** Works only with Solr search. For Elastic Search consider using Search Logical Filter.
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
| Search Type | Entered search input value | Expected result | Processed search input value |
|
|
| ----------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
|
|
| Single Term | banana | Nodes that contain the term **banana** in any content | banana |
|
|
| Conjunction | big yellow banana | Nodes that contain all of the terms **big**, **yellow**, and **banana** | big yellow banana |
|
|
| Phrase | "big yellow banana" | Nodes that contain the exact phrase **big yellow banana** | "big yellow banana" |
|
|
| Conjunction | big AND yellow AND banana | Nodes that contain all of the terms **big**, **yellow**, and **banana** | big yellow banana |
|
|
| Disjunction | orange OR banana OR apple | Nodes that contain at least one of the terms **orange**, **banana** or **apple** | orange OR banana OR apple |
|
|
| Exact term | =orange | Nodes that contain the exact term **orange** in any content. | orange |
|
|
|
|
**Important note:** Consider using Search Logical Filter when you need to combine multiple search types. Mixing search types directly in the input may result in wrong query format and incorrect results.
