How to Use Search Page Results

After submitting search criteria on the Search Page, a list of matching resources are returned. If you doubleclick the resource to expand its information section, you will see a number of options available for each resource. These options, and other tools on the search results page, help users evaluate discovered resources, access them for use, and share them with other users. The tools for evaluating, accessing, and sharing are described below.

Evaluate resources

Features in this section focus on helping users evaluate if discovered resources can meet their needs.

Access resources

Features in this section focus on helping users access a discovered resource for use in other applications.

Share a discovered resource

It is also easy to share resources you've discovered using tools on the search results interface. One way to share resources is to provide the REST-formatted URL for your search to a colleague. Another way to share resources is to click the Share link - if available - and then select the networking tool to which you want to share the resource.
