Allow searching for files in multiple subfolders at the same time

Allow searching for files in multiple subfolders at the same time

Request received via Technical Support from our client, Newis SA, Switzerland. 

 

Currently, if one has access to a few subfolders in a BIM 360 Docs project, it is not possible to search for files at the same time in those subfolders. It is required to search on a folder by folder basis. 

 

With the new function to show the path, it would be nice to leverage this and allow selecting the parent folder (even if there is no access to it) and run the search. Of course, the results return should include results only from the folders where there is access. 

 

Thank you!

 

Best regards,

Bogdan

@bogdan_ciobanu  I think we can search across subfolders, if it doesn't work, would you mind log a customer issue ticket to the dev team? Thanks!

I would like to not search subfolders... is that possible?  If I do a search for a file, multiple versions of that file shows up.  

 

I.e we have a checkprint folder for a "point in time", I don't want to search that folder when I'm looking for drawings and I don't want to sort by directory.
