Is there BOOLEAN login in search?

Hi!

I read all article about searching in “how-to” here:
https://workflowy.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/sections/4410290657172-Search
But I did’t find answer!

And today I have a case when I need to find only item a AND item b.

I have a structure like this:

bullet
   - item a:  [data]
   - item b: [data]
   - ... etc
bullet
   - item a:  [data]
   - item b: [data]
   - ... etc
 bullet
   - item a:  [data]
   - item b: [data]
   - ... etc

What I did in the search field:

  • item a && item b
  • item a & item b
  • item a AND item b
  • item a and item b

Is there a way to achieve this?

If you search for several words, by default there is a boolean AND between them. If you just search for “item a item b”, as a result you will get only the nodes that contain both items.

In the structure you show above, no node contain both item a and item b, so if you search for “item a item b” you will get zero result.

If you want results to show all the nodes that contain either item a or item b, you will need to search for “item a OR item b”
