Multiple file search syntax

Anonymous — Thu, 16 Jun 2016 13:17:34 GMT

How would one search for multiple files at a single time?

I want to find for example the following files:

GX12345

PQ16911

PQ19912

Usually in another search program I can find these by writing GX12345*|PQ16911*|PQ19912*

How can I replicate this in vault?

There is currently not an 'and/or' option within Vault for searching.

You would have to do a 'FIND' for those values individually.

I got it to work actually! Thank you for mentioning the word or.

If you type GX12345* or PQ16911* or PQ19912* in the search form it ends up returning the files I was looking for.
