Access Request Search Syntax

When you search for an Access Request, you can enter search text and filter the results according to access request labels.

Use the logical operators OR and AND in a search to specify exactly what data to retrieve. The search looks for the text in all of the following access request fields: label, target, source, destination, service, action, ticket ID.

Enter <fieldname>:<text> to specify that an access request is matched only when occurring in a specific field:

• label: <text> – Returns access requests with the specified text in the label field
• target:<text> - Returns access requests with the specified text in the target field
• source:<text> - Returns access requests with the specified text in the source field
• destination:<text> - Returns access requests with the specified text in the destination field
• service:<text> - Returns access requests with the specified text in the service field
• action:<Accept/Drop/Remove> - Returns access requests with the specified action
• ticketid:<number> - Returns access requests from the specified Ticket

For example:

Search text: (192.168.5.5 AND source:192.168.2.2) OR label:"label 2"

Result: Access Requests with 192.168.5.5 anywhere in the Access Request and 192.168.2.2 in the Source field, and access requests that are labeled with "label 2".
