Search by attribute
The attributes available for searching are dependent on the type of object being searched. The search drop-down menu lists the attributes that can be selected.
API attributes can be searched
The drop-down menu lists a limited number of attributes that can be searched; however, you can perform an attribute search using the English name of any attribute as it appears in the API. Nested attributes can be chained together using a period (.). To see a list of all the attributes, see the API documentation.

Using the web client
The web client is functionally similar to the desktop client end-user view and useful for requestors, reviewers, and approvers. Many administration functions are available as well. The web client uses a responsive user interface design to adapt to the user's device, from desktops to tablets or mobile phones. Only one user session will persist during a browser session. Any tabs opened after initial authentication will use the existing user session.
NOTE: In this documentation, you will see the following icons which denote the interface:
