Search queries can be constructed and run from a valid URL path. The URL must contain the root URL of a digital workplace and the /?search
parameter with a value. For example:
https://customercare.igloosoftware.com/?search=cat
Additional parameters (described in the table below) can be appended to a query to add additional specificity. This functionality can be used to create links or CTAs that perform a specific search.
Query results are displayed on the normal search results page.
