titleSearch Bar

As well as using the Explore page you can use the search bar to find a view, workbook or project. The search panel is arranged by views, workbooks then projects. Once you've typed in your keyword ensure you're looking in the right section to find the view, workbook or project you're searching for.

You can also search for 'tags' within the search bar. When workbooks are published, members of SIA assign them tags made up of relevant keywords (for example, the NSS Analysis workbooks would have the tags 'Survey' and 'Students'). If you're unsure of the workbook name, try searching for possible tags and review the workbooks that are returned in the search panel.

titleFavourites

Projects, workbooks and views can all be added to your favourites, this is a useful way of saving your most used workbooks all in one place. It is recommended that workbooks, rather than views, are added to favourites due to the titles of workbooks being more descriptive.

To favourite a workbook click the star next to the workbook title. Once you've added a workbook to your favourites it can be accessed using the navigation panel, they are also displayed on the home page. 

To remove a workbook from your favourites click the star again.


Favourites can also be accessed while in another workbook using the favourites menu. This has a search function to easily find the workbook you're looking for.
