   Area	Description
   ① Search box	Global Search: Performs a fuzzy search for assets by name, display name, or description keyword. Additionally, you can search for business metrics by associated technical metrics, technical metrics by associated business metrics, tables by field name or description, and dashboards by chart name or description. Search in results: Narrows the current results with additional keywords. Search Name Only: Performs a fuzzy search for assets by name keyword. Search Description Only: Performs a fuzzy search for assets by description keyword.
   ② Asset filtering	All Assets: Click All Assets to view all assets in the project. The left panel displays tables organized by project, showing the complete directory for that project. You can switch projects at the top. Selecting a directory level automatically displays assets in that directory and its subdirectories in the list on the right. To the right of the project, click Expand All or Collapse All to expand or collapse the directory tree. Click Collapse Navigation to hide the directory tree, or click Expand Navigation in the upper-left corner to show it again. Filter assets by system and custom attributes. Click More Filters and select the attributes to use as filters in the dialog box. Supported filter conditions: Contains, Not Contains, Is Empty, and Is Not Empty. Contains/Not Contains: You can select multiple attribute values. If the attribute allows custom input, you can also enter custom keywords. Is Empty/Is Not Empty: No additional configuration required. Note When the asset source attribute is used as a filter, the Is Empty/Is Not Empty conditions are not supported. When the statistical granularity attribute is used as a filter, no filter conditions can be applied. The custom attributes in the filter options are the attributes created in Data Warehouse Planning > Attribute Management that are configured to be visible in the Asset Catalog. Enabling too many filters may affect query performance. We recommend using no more than 10 filters.
   ③ Asset list	Displays an asset summary for quick reference. Click Settings, select the attributes to display in the dialog box, and then click OK. Note You can select up to 16 attributes. You can reorder the selected attributes. The asset list displays attribute columns in the order you specify. The selectable attributes include all custom attributes and some system attributes that are configured to be visible in the Asset Catalog on the Data Warehouse Planning > Attribute Management page.
