# Using the Search

Learn how to quickly find any item using the Search

## Why search matters

The **Search** function is one of the most frequently used features in info.link. It gives you quick access to everything created in your account – whether it’s a Product, Media, Template, or Module. Instead of browsing manually, you can type a keyword, apply filters, and immediately find what you need.

## Opening the search

-   Click the black **Search button** at the top of the page.
    
-   A dialog window opens, showing all items available in your account.
    
-   The **search field** is automatically in focus, so you can start typing straight away.
    

## What you can find

The search covers all item types in info.link:

-   **Products** (Pages linked to an EAN number)
    
-   **Media** (Pages not tied to an EAN number)
    
-   **Templates** (reusable layouts applied across many Pages)
    
-   **Modules** (individual content blocks like Links, Text, etc.)
    

## Filtering results

You can narrow your results using the **filter bar** next to the search field. Filters allow you to view only:

-   Products
    
-   Media
    
-   Templates
    
-   Modules
    

This makes it easy to focus on the type of item you are currently working with.

## Understanding the results table

Search results are displayed in a table designed to give you a quick overview of key information. For each item, you can see:

-   **Type and Kind** – for example, Product Page or Digital Link Matcher Module.
    
-   **Internal name** – how the item is labeled internally.
    
-   **Title / Button label** – how it appears on the consumer-facing digital label.
    
-   **Updated by** – which team member last changed the item.
    
-   **Updated at** – when the item was last changed.
    
-   **Status** – whether the item is currently online or offline, and if it is assigned to a Template or Page.
    

By default, results are **sorted by recency**, so the items you’ve worked on most recently appear at the top.

## Navigating from search

Clicking any item in the results list will take you directly to that item. This makes search not only a discovery tool but also the fastest way to jump into editing.

## Status indicators

The icons on the far right of the results table provide quick status checks:

-   **Online / offline** – whether the item is visible to consumers.
    
-   **Assigned / unassigned** – whether a Template or Module is already connected to a Page.
    

This lets you confirm the state of your work at a glance without opening each item individually.
