The Global Search, Group Search, and Device Group Search features are powerful search functionalities that enhance navigation and information retrieval within a system or application.
This applies to all TeamViewer users.
Global Search
Global Search allows you to search for device names, device IDs, device group names, or contacts. Additionally, it allows searching for features and settings, which can be easily navigated from search results.
When searching for devices, you can perform several actions such as:
- Connect via any of the supported methods (Easy Access, prompting for confirmation, Windows authentication, etc)
- Transfer files
- Go to the device result
- Edit the device details
For contacts, the Global Search bar allows you to:
- Connect directly to the contact
- Transfer files
- Send a message
- Go to the contact result
- Edit contact details
Simply type the device or contact name and select the action you want to perform.
Note: If you enter a group name and confirm with Enter, the Global Search bar will open the corresponding group, displaying a list of devices associated with that group.
You can also search for any setting or feature via the search bar.
Type the feature or setting name you want to access, and you can access it by clicking on it in the search results.
Group Search
Group Search is a feature designed to facilitate the search for group names. This search function is particularly useful when you need to find a specific group.
Device Group Search
Device Group Search is a specialized search functionality that specifically targets the list of devices within a particular group. This feature is particularly useful when you want to search for devices that belong to a specific group you are working with.
With the Device Group Search, you can enter any term, such as a device name or ID, to search for specific devices within the group. The search results will display devices that match the search criteria, allowing you to locate the desired devices within the group quickly.
In addition to searching for devices by name or ID, the Device Group Search provides additional filtering options on the right-hand side of the search interface. These filters allow you to refine further the search results based on specific criteria, such as device status, device type, or other relevant parameters. By leveraging these filters, you can narrow down your search and find the exact devices you need within the group.
