One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 6.0.8 LTS - User Guide

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. For more information about the API, see How do I access the API in the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Administration Guide.

Entering the search string

  1. Click the icon and select the attribute to be searched.

    The selected attribute is added to the search box. For example, if you select Last Name then LastName: is added to the search box.

  2. In the search box, enter the text string after the colon in the attribute label.

    You can specify multiple attributes, repeating these steps to add an additional attribute to the search box. Do not add punctuation marks, such as commas or colons, to separate the different attributes. When multiple attributes are included, all search criteria must be met in order for an object to be included in the results list.

    As you type, the list displays items whose selected attributes contain the text that was entered.

    NOTE: The status bar along the bottom of the console shows the number of items returned.

  3. To clear the search criteria, click Clear.

    When you clear the search criteria, the original list of objects are displayed.

The following attributes are available when you click the icon. In addition, API attributes can be searched in the search box.

The web client uses a responsive user interface design to adapt to the user's device, from desktops to tablets or mobile phones.
