Article Summary

Use the Point of Interest (POI) text search to look for POIs in any Site.

To start the POI Search, tap anywhere in the search bar at the bottom of the screen.

Note: If a POI is already selected or the POI creation form is open, deselect those first.

The POI Search list view will open.

POI Search List View

If this is the first search within the site, the search result list will be empty. If not, the search result list will show previously selected POIs.

Potential results will be shown below the search bar while you type. The search term is highlighted in the result.

The text search will look for the search term in the title and description text.

A tap on the search result will bring you to the Search Result Map view.
