Search in Research Hub
About Searching the Research Hub
Using the Research Hub, you can search across all of the surveys, dashboards, videos, and uploaded documents in your Qualtrics license to display the most relevant results. Search results include the following document types:
- Surveys: Titles, blocks, settings, questions, and answer choices.
- Dashboards: Titles, pages, filters, and widgets.
- Uploaded Files: File names, text, and images. Files are uploaded in the Manage Research tab.
- Videos: Transcripts and summaries.
See Research Hub for more information on how to set up and use Research Hub.
Using Search
- Navigate to Research Hub.
- Stay in the Home tab.
- Enter what you would like to search for.
Qtip: Search works best when using real phrases rather than keywords. For example, search “What drives customer satisfaction with our shoes?” rather than “Shoes satisfaction”.
- Use the filters to refine your search results. You can filter by Document type, Creation date of documents, or Access permission.
Qtip: Access permission lets you narrow down results to all documents (regardless of whether you have access to them), only documents you have access to, and only documents owned by you. - Search results will include documents you don’t have access to. To filter these out quickly, select Only show documents I have access to.
Qtip: If you don’t have access to a document that you think would help your research, you can always ask for access to it.
- When you reach the end of results relevant to your search, the Research Hub will let you know. You can choose to load more if you’d still like to take a look at them.
By default, results are sorted based on relevancy.
