Managing system variables: Search

The System Variables section contains two search-related variables:

  • enforcePermissionCheckForScenarioSearch: Use to restrict search results only to components to which the user has access. This only applies if your site has implemented Access Control and the setting is global.

To ensure that the Search window (see “Using the Search tool” in the aP Pro User Guide) does not display results to which the user does not have access:

  • In the System Administrator window. click System Variables.

  • In the enforcePermissionCheckForScenarioSearch row, set Value to true. (The default is false.)

    Note:

    The default setting for this system variable is “false”, which means that all search results are displayed. You must set this value to “true” as described above to turn on access-restricted search results.

    Administrators can further customize the behavior of the Search tool as described in Managing dialog views above.

  • includeRemovedUsersInSearchCriteria is provided to control whether removed users appear in search-related UI displays. The default value for this variable is false.
