Advanced Search in Quick Fields

asked on January 29, 2015

Hello,

 

I'm trying to generate a search syntax to use in Quick Fields, but I'm having an issue.  I'm trying to target PDF documents in specific subfolders in a folder tree:

Clients

     Client A

           Subfolder A

                    Subfolder B

     Client B

           Subfolder A

                    Subfolder B

 

The idea is that I'd like to run the search as I would with rules in workflow:

Path starts with \Clients\

Path contains "Subfolder B"

Document Type equals PDF

 

This is to target several like-named subfolders under around 15 client folders.  I'd like to use a dynamic search syntax so the process will be sustainable as client folders grow.

 

Any ideas?

Are the PDFs always going to be directly inside Subfolder B? If so, then you can use this advanced search syntax:

{LF:LOOKIN="MyRepository\Clients"} & {LF:ParentName="Subfolder B"} & {LF:Ext="pdf"}
