Advanced Searches for Users and Groups
If the search panel includes an Advanced tab, you can use filters for your search. When you initiate a search, you select whether you want to search for users or groups and then specify one or more filters. You cannot perform an advanced search for roles.
A filter allows you to specify a field to use for the search and a string value to use for matching. The Advanced tab of the search panel has a Field Names list that contains the field names you can use. My webMethods uses Principal Attribute Providers to generate the list of field names. In the list, bold items identify the name of the Principal Attribute Provider with the selections generated from that provider underneath.
The field names in the list can differ based on the webMethods components that are installed. Additionally, developers at your site can create custom Principal Attribute Providers that can supply field names for the list.
For each filter, when you select a field, you also specify a string value. A user or group is a match if the field value for that user or group contains the string value that you specify. The search is case-insensitive.
My webMethods performs an AND operation on the filters you specify. In other words, all filters must match for My webMethods to include a user or group in the search results.
