When entering a combination of numbers and text (without spaces) in a search term, the point at which the numbers and text meet are treated as a word break — as if a space existed. For example, consider the following search: “Metadata>Name: London”. In this case, the Search app might return the following three assets:

The 01234London asset is returned because the search sees 01234 and London as separate elements (a word break).

Mid-segment, partial, number-only, or text-only searches are not supported. If you completed the same search for either “123” or “ond”, the search would not return any assets.

Depending on your search, the app might treat special characters, such as the underscore, hyphen, period, and others, as word breaks. Similar to numbers, the special character is ignored or it is treated as a space. If you want to include a special character in your search, you might need to create an exact match search by enclosing the term in quotes. For example you might search for New_York as “New_York” to ensure that the underscore is included in your search.
