Concept vs. Free Text Search on Pure PortalConcept vs. Free Text Search on Pure Portal

What

What type of searches are available on the Pure portal?

How

On the portal, there are two different search strategies available:

  1. Concept search
  2. Free Text search

By default, the portal is set to do a 'concept search', if no results it falls back to 'free text search.'

You can change this at any time in your portal settings: Administrator --> Pure Portal --> Portal --> Configuration --> Search.

For detailed functionality of both search strategies, please refer to the documentation on the Client Space,
