Searching and discovering content in Collage

Find any asset fast — search from anywhere, then narrow with filters for tags, file type, dates, and more.

Search is one of the most important parts of Collage. Click the search bar to look up content by keyword — product names, campaign names, file types, or descriptive terms.

Search by keyword

As you type, Collage shows real-time suggestions pulled from your assets, Collages, and folders. Below the input, a Recommended Tags section lets you click a tag to filter instantly. Your Recent Searches are saved as clickable shortcuts so you can re-run a past query in one click.

Results are grouped into tabs — All, Assets, Collages, and Folders — each showing the top matches with a "View all (xx)" link to see everything in that group.

Note: Click the search bar — available on nearly every page — or press Command + F (Mac) or Control + F (Windows) to open the search overlay. From the overlay you can search keywords, apply filters, and select results without leaving your current page. Press Enter or click View All to open a full search results page for refining your query.

Narrow results with filters

Click Filter to refine your search. Filters can be combined — an asset must satisfy every active filter to appear.

  • Date Added — choose a preset (30 minutes, 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, or 1 month ago) or Custom, plus a condition of Before, After, or Between. Presets default to After; a custom range uses Between.
  • Last Modified Date — the same options, applied to when an asset was last changed.
  • Tags — pick one or more tags with a condition: Include all of, Include any of, Exclude all of, Exclude any of, or Contains.
  • File Type — match Is or Is not a type such as PNG, PDF, JPG, or SVG.
  • Uploaded By — match assets uploaded by a specific person.
  • Collage — match assets that belong to a specific Collage.
  • Visibility — match Is or Is not Available or Restricted.
  • Orientation — for images only, match Is or Is not Horizontal, Vertical, or Square (ignored for non-image files).
  • Custom fields — filter by any custom fields defined for your workspace.

Note: Combine filters to zero in fast — for example, the product-photography tag + JPG added in the last 7 days.

Once your library is well tagged, search becomes more powerful.

View and organize the full search results page

Once you open the full results page — via View All or pressing Enter — click Display (the gear icon) to set View (Grid or List; Mosaic isn't offered here), Sort by, and, in Grid view, Thumbnail size.

Select results and use the bulk action bar that appears the same way you would anywhere else in Collage. See Acting on many assets at once with bulk actions for how selection and the bulk action bar work.
