All the users that use Discovery Accelerator to search for items within a case know that we can search on emails from or to a user or group of users. We also know that we can search for a phrase or individual words or numbers. We also know we can search for items before, after or between set dates. What most user's don't know is that there are additional search options that can provide more granular search ability.Would it not be nice if one could search only for emails that had 20 TO: recipients or SSID or even by emails with an attachement with a specific name.....Well you can
These items can be access on DA when you open a new search and at the bottom of the screen there is a Miscellaneous option. When you expand this you will see the below. The additional search options are entered into the Other Attribute section of the screen. This does give you a more granular search ability.
The Below table provides you with the details of the items and how to use them.
