Defining Full Text Search Criteria

The full text search criteria bar contains all the available search parameters to allow you to perform a full text search of recordings.

Defining Full Text 1

Use the Collapse icon to collapse the search criteria bar out of the way, or expand it again if it is hidden.

Click the Play 2 icons to bring up a dialog to edit each type of search criteria. The following types of search criteria are available:

  • Media Type to return all text-based media types (default) or restrict by media type.

  • Users to restrict search results by selected users or all users.

You can use the Department, Location and Status filters or the Search box in the User dialog to restrict the user data displayed.

  • Date to restrict search results by recording start date and time or all dates. The date criteria has the following options:

    • Any to show all call records, without any date or time restrictions.

    • Last X Days to enter the number of days of data to display, counting back from today. Enter an integer in the range 0 to 10000, with 0 representing today.

    • Range to define start and end dates using the calendar provided, then optionally start and end times using the "time dropper" control. Move the teardrop around the circle to increase/decrease the time. Click on the minute value to switch to incrementing by minutes and vice versa by clicking on the hour value.

Full text search is provided by Meilisearch. A query is broken up into words, and recordings containing the words are returned. There are two types of terms: single words and phrases.

  • A single word is a single word. Matching is tolerant of small typing mistakes, so a word with a minor misspelling will still find recordings containing the correct spelling.

  • A phrase is a group of words surrounded by double quotes such as "hello dolly". Only recordings containing the words together, in that order, are returned.

  • Place a - (minus) directly in front of a word to exclude recordings containing that word.

Meilisearch does not support the Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT), wildcard characters (? and *) or the fuzzy search (~) operator that were available with earlier versions of QMS. When several words are entered, results containing the most matching words are listed first.

Detailed information about how Meilisearch interprets queries is available on the Meilisearch website:
