search the exact phrase

[andrey lyubyh]

Hi there,

is there a way to look for an exact phrase (not just one word) across the documentation we have? Maybe I could take the entire phrase in quotes and it will give me the related search outcome.  

regards,

Andre

Hi @andrey lyubyh ,

Welcome to Atlassian community. 

Use double quotes around your search term to find a specific word or phrase. For example "product roadmap" will search for content that contains the phrase 'product roadmap', or a phrase where 'product' and 'roadmap' are the major words.

This is documented here. You can check this page for more info. 

Have a good weekend. !

Thanks,

That is not an exact phrase search.
The comfluence docs say:

Exact phrase search

To search for content that contains the exact phrase "chalk and cheese":

"chalk and cheese"

but this is not true, most exact phrases cannot be searched for!
