In the top bar on the Sync page, alongside the dropdown box labeled “Columns”, you have another tool for refining your view: the search bar.
Search functionality vs. Sync Report Search functionality
Please, note that this search feature is distinct from the Sync Report Search, which delves into the detailed sync reports themselves.
The search bar provides a high-level filtering mechanism, allowing you to quickly narrow down your view based on specific criteria.
Search criteria
For instance, you can search
- by tenant name,
- organization,
- authentication method,
- or sync status.
For example, typing “error” in the search bar will display all tenants currently experiencing an error state, while typing in “service account” will display all tenants that have been installed using the service account authentication method.
Search functionality and visible columns
The search functionality is closely tied to the visible columns on the page. You can only search for data that is currently displayed in the loaded columns.
For example, if the authentication method column is turned off or not loaded, searching for authentication-related information won't yield results. Essentially, the search bar performs a keyword search across the visible data loaded on the page.
Regular expressions
The search functionality includes the possibility to use regular expressions (regex), allowing for intricate filtering beyond simple keyword matching. However, it's important to note that this feature is not enabled by default and is primarily intended for expert users who are familiar with regex syntax.
To utilize regex in your searches, select the “.*” icon in the search bar and input regex patterns directly into the search field. Configuration Manager's regex implementation aligns with JavaScript standards.
