Search in OpenSearch Dashboards

OpenSearch Dashboards provide the following search tools:

  • Filters

  • Queries

  • Full-text search

Filters enable you to organize the output information using the interface tools. You can search for information by a set of indexed fields using a variety of logical operators.

Queries enable you to construct search commands using OpenSearch query domain-specific language (DSL) expressions. These expressions allow you to search by the fields not included in the index.

In addition to filters and queries, you can use the Search input field for full-text search.
