Explore: Keyword Search and Boolean Syntax Updates

Quality of life improvements for users creating Explore searches
 

What is it, and what’s the value?

• Keyword search: Save time by easily modifying your keyword searches with new keyboard navigation and drag-and-drop.
  • Improved keyboard navigation
    • Tab on keyboard to move left to right between boxes
      • Shift + Tab to move right to left
    • Use arrow keys to shift through dropdown options (i.e. company search)
    • Delete inputs with backspace
  • Improved mouse interaction ️
    • Drag and drop inputs between boxes
    • Inputs have “remove” as an immediate action
  • Improved responsive behavior 🤏
    • The UI can be used on narrow screens
    • Better adapts to available space
• Boolean syntax: Write boolean faster with the new ability to add an OR with an operator.
  • Previously, you needed to specify the operator for each phrase. It’s now possible to write OR within an operator
  • For example, the old syntax 
     ingress:“Solar energy” OR ingress:“Solar power” OR ingress:“Photovoltaic” OR… can now be entered as 

    ingress:(“Solar energy” OR “Solar power” OR “Photovoltaic” OR “Solar panels”)
