Find in Repository 

Use

You use this function to search for a development object that is in the baseline of a Mobile Application Repository (MAR).You can use the wildcard (*) character when you enter the search criteria.

You cannot search for an object that has been created in an unreleased change list, because the object does not exist in the baseline.
