Copy a Search

CA APM lets you copy a saved search and use the search as a template for creating another search that is similar. For example, you can copy the default asset search and add the asset creation date and user ID of the person who created the asset.

To copy a search

  1. Click the tab and optional subtab for the object that you want to find.
  2. On the left, click Manage Searches.

    A list of saved searches displays.

  3. Click the search that you want to copy.
  4. Click Copy.

    A new search is created based on the copied search.

  5. Change the information for the new, copied search.
  6. (Optional) In the Search Security area of the page, select the user roles for which the search is available. Roles are helpful so you can make the search available to all users having the roles you select. Administrators can also select specific configurations for the search.

    Note: If you do not select either a role or configuration, the search is available to the current user.

  7. Click Save.

    The search is saved and is available for future searches.
