Advanced Search

The advanced search feature gives you a flexible way to view the work items in your business area by allowing you to specify multiple different combinations of search criteria, letting you view your work item data precisely how you want to.

You can access the ‘Advanced Search’ tab from the Nav section. When you hover over the 'Advanced Search' option here, you'll also see a list of your Saved Views (if you have any), sorted in alphabetical order.

To give users access to this feature, a Custom Role must be created via the User Management section of Builder, with the 'Can Export Advanced Search views to Excel' option switched on in the 'Advanced Search' feature access section.
