Working with saved queries
The HCP Search Console lets you save the queries you create so you can run them again at any time. Saving a query saves the criteria only, not the search results. Each time you run a saved query, you get a new set of returned objects.
You can publish a feed for a saved query. The feed makes regularly updated query results available to users of the web site where it’s published.
This chapter provides instructions for saving queries and then viewing, running, editing, deleting, and publishing feeds for them.
Saving a query
You can save all three types of queries: simple, structured, and advanced. Queries you save while one search facility is active are not available while another facility is active.
Procedure
On the Simple Search, Structured Search, or Advanced Search page, specify the query criteria.
Click Search.
(Optional) Select filters to apply to the query results.
The filters you apply to the search results are saved along with the query.In the save as field, type a name for the query.
Query names must be from one through 500 characters long and cannot contain single quotation marks ('), double quotation marks ("), or backslashes (\). Certain strings that are used internally by HCP are reserved and cannot be used as names as saved queries.If a query doesn’t return any objects, a field labeled Save this query as appears below the search criteria on the Search Results page.
Click Save.
Viewing saved queries
When you save a query, the Search Console lists it on the Saved Queries page. From this page, you can run, edit, or delete the query, as well as publish it as a feed.
