How to do an advanced search ?

Support Team
  • Updated
The search bar ("Filter...") located above the contacts list allows you to quickly find targeted profiles by combining search terms, operators, and specific commands.

Default Behavior and Wildcards

By default, searching for a term returns contacts where the field starts with that value (for example, searching marc will match Marc and Marcel).
To search for a string located anywhere within a field (beginning, middle, or end), prefix your search term with a percent sign %.
  • Example: %marc will match Marc, Marcel, as well as Jean-Marc.

Search Operators

Operators help you refine your query logic:
OperatorFunctionExample
+Forces an exact match on the search term (disables automatic wildcard suffix).+marc matches marc, but not marcel.
!Excludes contacts matching the expression that follows.!is:anonymous excludes all anonymous contacts.
"..."Searches for the exact phrase inside quotes."John Doe"
(...)Groups expressions together to control evaluation priority.(london OR paris)
ORCombines terms with disjunctive logic (by default, terms are joined with an implicit AND).london OR paris

Specific Search Commands

You can restrict your search to specific fields or attributes using the command:value syntax.

Status and Ownership (is:)

  • is:anonymous: Filters for anonymous contacts (unidentified visitors).
  • is:unowned: Filters for contacts that do not have an assigned owner.
  • is:mine: Filters for contacts assigned to you (where you are the owner).

Contact Field Commands

  • email:value: Searches within the contact's email address (e.g., email:@gmail.com).
  • name:value: Searches within the contact's first or last name.
  • company:value: Searches within the associated company name.
  • segment:segment_alias: Displays contacts belonging to a specific segment (use the segment's alias, not its display name).
  • owner:name: Filters contacts by assigned owner's name.
  • ip:ip_address: Searches by IP address.
  • ids:ID1,ID2,ID3: Searches for a specific list of contact IDs (comma-separated, no spaces).
