Using the Search in Folder Feature

For MediaCentral Cloud UX systems that are integrated with a Production Management module, the Search app's Location pill allows you to limit your search to a single Production database, or a specific location within the database.

The Browse app provides a "Search in folder" option that allows you to select a folder in the Production Management database and set it directly in the Search app's Location pill.

n If the "Search in folder" option is not shown for the folders of a remote Production Management database, ensure that your administrator has enabled "Search Indexing" for the module in the System Configuration section of the Multi-Site Settings app of the MediaCentral Cloud UX Admin app. For more information, see “Linking and Unlinking Modules and Features” in the Avid MediaCentral | Cloud UX Installation Guide.

To use the search in folder feature:

  1. Do one of the following:

    • Right-click a folder in the Browse directory or Results area and select Search in folder.

    • Open a folder in the Results area, click the App Menu button and select Search in folder.

    • Open a folder in the Results area, right-click in an empty area of the Results area and select Search in folder.

    A new instance of the Search app opens. The folder name is shown in the Search app's Location pill.

  2. (optional) Refine your search criteria.

  3. Click the Search button to execute the search within the folder.
