You can search for items within a workspace in one of two ways:
Using the Search field in the workspace header.
When you use the Search field in the workspace header, your initial search scope is the current workspace.
Using the Search link in selected workspace modules.
When you use the Search link in a selected workspace module, your initial search scope is that particular module. The following modules provide a Search link:
Action Item Lists
Blogs
Calendar
Discussions
Documents
Links
Members
You create a workspace search index by deploying the PeopleSoft Interaction Hub delivered search definitions and categories and by building the workspace indexes.
Access the Search field in the workspace header.
This example illustrates the search field in the workspace header.

The Search field in the workspace header enables you to search in the current workspace.
To perform a search from the workspace header:
Click the cursor in the Search field in the workspace header.
Enter the search criteria.
Note: Do not use blank or * (asterisk); these are not valid search criteria.
Press Enter. Alternatively, click the Search button adjacent to the Search field.
The Search page appears displaying search results from the current workspace. The Facet area on the left side of the search results displays the modules and you can filter your search by module and drill down to the required information.
This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Search page.
You can refine your results by selecting all workspaces or changing the search criteria.
See Search <Module> Page.
Access the Search <Module> page (click the Search link in a specific workspace module).
This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Search Action Items page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Use the Search <Module> page to specify search criteria including search text, workspace scope), and to filter the search by facets.
