Updates

Improved search functionality in Data Platform (DATA-1568)

• Users now have greater control over their searches in FDE and FDW. New functionality includes:

  • Search for an exact phrase by using single or double quotation marks (e.g., if you search for vegetable oil, you will get all results that have either of those words but searching "vegetable oil" or ‘vegetable oil’ will yield only results that include that exact phrase).

  • Exclude terms by using a minus (-) symbol (e.g. searching 'vegetable oil' -'palm oil' will return all results about vegetable oil unless they include a reference to palm oil).

  • Expand your search by using or (e.g. searching “sunflower oil” “palm oil” will surface results containing both phrases, but searching "sunflower oil” or “palm oil" provides you with results that contain either phrase).

...

• The Import Price Ratios page was previously available only for the superadmin user group permission and not other groups of permissions. The import_priceratio permission was added to required groups to give them access to this page.

  Assigning the import_priceratio permission to a user or user group now gives the user or group access to the page.
