How do I search findings by title or file location?
On Issues, type in the box that reads Search findings by title or location. It matches finding titles and the Location column. Use a word from the title, an endpoint such as /search, or part of a file path. Search works together with the filters.
The search box is the quickest way to find one finding when you remember a word from it.
Steps
- Click Issues.
- Click the box that reads Search findings by title or location....
- Type a term. The table narrows as you type.
- Delete the text to clear the search.
Good to know
The Location column has two shapes, and search covers both.
| Finding type | Location looks like | Try searching for |
|---|---|---|
| Black-box | An HTTP method and path, such as POST /search | The path, like /search |
| White-box | A source file and line range | Part of a file name or folder |
Search sits on top of the filters. If you get no rows, check that a severity, class or target filter is not hiding the finding. Also check the triage chips. A finding marked Fixed may be hidden.
Some tips:
- Use short terms. One word beats a full sentence.
- Search by file name to see everything one file is responsible for.
- Search by path to see all findings on one endpoint.
Titles are cut off with an ellipsis in the table, but the full title is searchable and shows in the dialog. To search by finding ID, read how to search by issue ID.
Several findings can share one file. That is normal. See why several findings sit in the same file.
Search is also the fastest way to answer a question from a colleague, such as whether the scan has ever reported anything on a particular route or in a particular folder of the code. Type, read, done.
