Working with Search Results in Hub

You can view the Search Results in different ways and take multiple actions on this page.

Search results display

When viewing search results in the Hub, you can toggle between two views - Table view and List view.

The Table View

The Table view includes multiple attributes making it easy to compare values across profiles. You can configure your table view by choosing the attribute columns you want to show or hide, reordering the columns, resizing the columns, and, sorting data by column.

To configure what attribute columns you want to hide or show, simply click the Show/hide columns icon located on the right side of the Search Results panel. Select the attributes that you want to show, and deselect the check boxes for the attributes that you want to hide.

Newly added attributes display to the right of the table. You can scroll left and right to view the columns or drag columns and drop them where you prefer them to appear. Click the three vertical dots on the header to insert a column at a location or hide a specific column.

Change the width of the attribute column by hovering-over the column divider, and dragging to the desired column width. You can also sort columns in ascending or descending order by hovering over the attribute column and clicking the arrow to the left of the column header.

The UI retains your preferences in the table view, which includes the columns/attributes selected, order and width of the columns. When you log into the Search page again, you can see the table formatting you had specified previously. For example, if you added a new column and increased the size of one of the columns, you can see these changes when you log in the next time.

The List View

You may also view your search results in a List structure to easily scan search results. You can define the information displayed in the List view, including the profile pictures in your UI configuration.

The view type or format you specify for your search results will be retained by the UI. When you log in to Search UI the next time and select the particular entity type, data is displayed based on the specified preferences. This will save you a lot of time from having to format and organize your view everytime you are conducting a search.

Note: For Activity Log events, the search results are displayed in the original state, irrespective of your current set preferences. When you select a search event from the Activity Log, the columns displayed in the Search results are based on the selection at the time of the activity log event.
