Where search is performed
The free text search of the Data Explorer looks for a specific language in the following pieces of information:
- ID and localised name of the dataflow
- ID and localised name of the categories (and their parent categories) in which the dataflow is categorised
- Localised description of the dataflow
- IDs and localised names of the concepts used as dimensions, as well as the dimension IDs
- IDs and localised names of the codes used as dimension values
How to search
Exact single match word or multiword
Return all dataflows that have the exact match single word of one of the search words in the indexed information. The usage of search hints like AND, + and - are not required but allowed. The terms euro AND dollar AND "exchange rate" and euro dollar "exchange rate" are syntactically the same and bring the same results.
Exact phrase
Return all dataflows that have the exact match phrase in the indexed information. Exact phrases are entered by using quotes, e.g. "exchange rate".
Partial match of a word
Apply the same rules as for exact single match word or multiword for partial matching of words, e.g. key is found in keys and keywords.
It is not used for exact phrases.
See reference here.
How free text search hits are displayed
For each search result (dataflow), search hits found are displayed highlighted within its context, meaning that according text before and after the found text is also to be displayed.
