Different ways of searching for an Entity

  • Entity Names Containing Characters
    • When searching for Entity entire names that have special characters such as é è ñ ç ..... if the accent is not included in the search, the Entity will not appear. So it is imperative to use the accents however, you are able to use a partial search.
  • Entity Partial Search
    • You are able to also do a partial search for the Entity you wish to locate i.e. for Café, if you search for Caf, the entity will appear.
  • Entity Names Containing Brackets
    • You can also type the entire Entity name, including the brackets in the search bar i.e. Paper (Interactive) Inc and hit the enter button on your keyboard, it will appear.
