Search in the Functionality Pages
In each functionality page, you can use the Search field to easily find the items you need. The search functionality allows to filter a list based on the text you type in the Search box. The Search functionality is available for all the tabs in each page. If you switch between the tabs in a functionality page, and apply the Search filter, each tab will display only the matched items.
Additionally, the Search functionality allows you to search folders and files under the sub-folders. For example, if you want to search a log file with the name starting from "event", then in the Search box, start typing event. The Search box will display all the files under folders and sub folders with the name event. For more information, see the following image:
