Sorting search results

The default order in which the Search Results page lists returned objects differs depending on the active search facility:

While the metadata query engine is active, returned objects are listed in the order of the number of search criteria the object matches. Objects that match the same number of criteria are not listed in any specific order.

While the HDDS search facility is active, returned objects are listed in order by their relevance to the search. Relevance is determined by factors such as the creation date of the object and the distance between occurrences of search terms in the object.

You can change the order in which returned objects are listed on the Search Results page by selecting a different sort order:

While the metadata query engine is active, you can sort in ascending or descending order by:

oObject size

oChange time

oIngest time

oRetention setting

While the HDDS search facility is active, you can sort in ascending or descending order by:

oObject size

oIngest time

oRetention setting

oFor email only, the time the email was sent

To change the sort order on the Search Results page, select the order you want in the Sort results field.

When you select a sort option, the Search Results page immediately reorders the list of objects.
