+There are two means to search for files from the web interface, 'filter', and 'search'.
+\\

+**Filter**
-Files can be searched for, across clouds, in a variety of ways:
+{{:filter_search.png?600|}}
-  * Exact Phrase: Search for an exact match to a phrase
-  * Starts with: Search for the characters that start a phrase ie. abc - will find all files beginning with abc
-  * Ends with: Search for the characters that end a phrase ie. xyz.<extension> will find all files ending with xyz
-  * All words: Enter multiple words separated by spaces which will be searched for
-  * Any word: Enter multiple words and search for occurrences of any
-  * By file extension: Search for extension types
-All searches occur across all clouds mapped to an account and searches can be saved.
+ \\ When in the File Manager view, in the right hand side there is a 'filter' search box in the top right hand side of the screen. This is a quick way to filter search for items that have been loaded in the tree. It is not meant to be a comprehensive search, rather a shortcut to quickly finding something within a branch of the hierarchical file tree.

+**File MetaData Search**
