Copying and Pasting Search QueriesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

You can copy a search query that you have defined for a category to the clipboard. You can then paste it into another category. This is useful if you have several categories with similar content, meaning that you wish to change the search query only slightly.

Procedure

The Taxonomy Query Builder has its own clipboard that enables the copying and pasting of search queries. The clipboard is iView-specific and only allows copying and pasting within this particular iView.

Copying and pasting entire search queries

You can use the Copy button to copy the entire search query for a category to the clipboard.

You can use the Paste button to insert the contents of the clipboard into another category.

Caution

If conditions have already been defined for the target category, they are now overwritten by the contents of the clipboard.
