➖The Minus Operator

For example, you want to find all information on a certain topic except for the information that has been developed in a certain project. Use the Minus operator to exclude certain terms from your search, e.g. like this:

• Cost reinforced concrete 2020 -projectname_1

• offer 100 licences -customer name -person

It is important that the term to be excluded is placed directly (without spaces) after the minus. If there are several comments to be excluded, the minus operator must be used several times (see 2nd example).

In addition, the minus operator cannot be used alone.

💻The File Type Operator

Common file formats can be filtered with amberSearch using the file type filter. However, many companies have special file formats that cannot be mapped using the standard filters.

To search these we have introduced the file type operator:

• type:xlsx Calculation Project X

• type:pptx Final Project Presentation 2022

The operator can be triggered by using "type:", "type:" or "suffix:". You can then enter the type of file you are looking for (see examples above). The operator works especially for files that are stored in file storage systems. The operator may be anywhere in your query.

Please note: A specific file type extension is expected - Excel is not a file type extension, but .xlsx, .csv & Co are.
