In the Igoo Mobile app, you can find people and content using the built-in search functionality.

Considerations
- Web tab vs. other tabs: Searching from within the Web tab provides different functionality than searching from other tabs. See Search.
- Searching past subscription notifications: If you recently received a subscription notification for the content you want to find, you can search only that feed instead of the entire digital workplace. See Searching your subscription notification feed in the app.
-
Default search behavior: While search will return related content and people, it separates these results into two tabs. Depending on where you initiate your search, one of these tabs will be the default:
- When you search from the Feed, Notifications, or Favorites tab, your search results will default to showing content.
- When you search from the People tab, your search results will default to showing people.
- Search results: Your search results will not include content you don't have access to or task channels and tasks.
- Pages and spaces in search: Selecting a page or space will open it in your mobile device's web browser, while selecting content and channels open them in the app.
Ordering of search results
Search results are returned based on an algorithm for relevance with a few influencing factors.
- Term frequency
- Exact term matches over near matches.
- Terms in titles are weighted more than terms in labels and the body of the content.
- Post date and activity on content also impact the order in which results appear.
- Keywords tied to a Recommended Result will result in the content appearing at the top of your search results list.
Who can do this?
- Any digital workplace member
