Global search runs a search across multiple entities on the Mindtickle learning platform, including modules, files, series, assets, and more. It accepts user queries and entity-specific filters and returns results in a structured format. See [Pagination and sorting](/docs/search/global-search/run-a-global-search/#notes) before implementing subsequent pages or custom sorting.

## Searchable entities

An entity is a category or type of content on the platform. Entity filters let you view results for one or more entities.

| Entity | What is searched |
| --- | --- |
| Assets | Asset name, description, attributes, asset file content, and the hub names where the asset resides. |
| Modules | Module name and description. |
| Tags | Tags applied to modules only. |
| Files | File name and file content. |
| Series | Series name and description. |
| Asset Hub | Hub name, description, and overview page content. |
| Peers | Name, username, and email address of colleagues. |

Tags applied to files, questions, polls, and evaluation parameters, for missions and coaching sessions, are currently not supported.

:::note
By default, the search is enabled for all entities. You can choose to enable it only for specific entities. Contact [Mindtickle Support](mailto:support@mindtickle.com) for help.
