### Scope: wiki_blobs
2019-02-15 15:39:39 +05:30
Filters are available for this scope:
- filename
- path
- extension
To use a filter simply include it in your query like: `a query filename:some_name*` .
You may use wildcards (`*`) to use glob matching.
Wiki blobs searches are performed on both filenames and contents. Search
results:
- Found in filenames are displayed before results found in contents.
- May contain multiple matches for the same blob because the search string
might be found in both the filename and content, or might appear multiple
times in the content.
