Searching the Catalog by Attribute Value
You can further refine your search by specifying asset attributes to search for.
If you specify a single asset type for the search, the set of attributes that you can use for the search is the set of attributes for that asset type. If you have specified several asset types for the search, the set of attributes available for the search is a combination of the respective type-specific attributes.
