Find a project in the Workflows module

    Tips and tricks
    • Using parenthesis. Inspire recognizes a parenthesis character ( ) as something that indicates a grouping of search items. If you want to search for a text value that actually contains a parenthesis character ( ), you must tell Inspire to interpret it literally. To do that, use a slash \ before any parenthesis character ( ). For example, if you want to search for the following value: Chapter1_Intro(with_endnotes), in the Search for box you would enter Chapter1_Intro\(with_endnotes\).
  5. If you want to include projects that have any of the following States, select the corresponding checkbox:
    • Include Completed
    • Include Cancelled
  6. Click Search search_button.

    Results: Your search results are shown in the top list on the Projects tab.

    • Optionally, to save the list of workflows that match the search as a CSV file, click ExportCSV Save as CSV.
