The Basic Search panel includes filter icons that allow you to
search for entities based on one or more attribute values.
In a filter row, the attribute data type determines which of the
following operators you can used to define your search criteria:
Strings
Dates
Enumerations
Boolean
Numerics

All classification attributes are string values;
numerics include byte, short,
int, float, double,
and long attribute data types.
To search on values for more than one attribute, add another filter row
to the search filter (click Add filter). The search
can find entities matching either filter criteria (logical OR) or matching
both criteria (logical AND). Set the logic using the
AND / OR buttons at the
top-left of the filter rows.
You can combine logical AND and OR criteria using filter groups. The
logic is the same within a filter group; use more than one filter group to
produce both AND and OR logic. For example, the following Classification
attribute filter searches for entities that are at "new" or "acknowledged"
stages in their processing and are owned by the Finance business team.
If you wanted to further limit the search results to the entities that
were created in Atlas in the last 24 hours, you would open the attribute
filter for Search by Entity Type and set the system attribute "Created
Timestamp" less than 24 hours. To open the Search by Entity Type filter,
you would need to select an entity type or "_ALL_ENTITY_TYPES".
