Overview
The Folder Search component already lets you search for a file by name. RPI 7.7 adds a Content tab alongside it, so you can search by what's actually inside a file instead of relying on its name or folder placement. Say you have an HTML asset named 65th Birthday that contains the line "Are you ready for Medicare?". Searching by name for "Medicare" wouldn't have surfaced it before v7.7, since the word only appears in the content, not the name. With the Content tab, that asset now shows up in the results.
This is useful any time you're building a campaign around a theme and want to find every asset that touches on it, regardless of what it's named. You still don't have to abandon careful naming conventions or folder structures, but you're no longer entirely dependent on them to find things later.
The Content tab appears anywhere that the Folder Search component is set up to browse Assets, Smart Assets, Landing Pages, Offers, or Wiki Pages. This includes the Home Page, the Landing Page, and the Offer, Asset, Smart Asset, Selection Rule, and Interaction Designers, plus Realtime Contexts, Data List Sync, and the Wiki. It won't appear where the search is limited to file types that don't carry text/HTML content (e.g., plain data files).
Searching by content
To search by content:
-
Go to a page where the Content tab is available.
-
Open the Folder Search component and select the Content tab (alongside the existing name-based search).
-
Enter your search term.
-
Review the results. While on the Content tab, results are assets whose body content contains the term, including ones where the term never appears in the name or folder. You’ll need to switch back to the Name tab for name-based results only, as the two aren't combined.
