Knowledge Search integration

Common questions about Knowledge Search

Connect content sources and use Knowledge Search

A data source, also known as a connector, integrates 2 platforms together to return data from one to another.
You can contact your Knowledge Manager. They’ll be able to update your available sources as needed. In the case that a source isn't available, your Knowledge Manage can contact your account manager.
Some content sources do the subscription validation automatically so you can connect to them without sign in, but there are some content sources that will require your account’s sign in information.
It's probable that your account isn’t set up by your Knowledge Manager yet, contact them for help.
Yes, you can manage your registered sources at any time from the Content sources’ menu.
You can use single keywords or a group of keywords by using Boolean operators like AND/OR/NOT. For example, fraud AND damage/car OR automobile/infringement NOT patent.
You can also search by specifying a phrase with double quotes. For example, “Due Diligence”. The results that are returned will display cases that search for exactly what's in the quotation marks.
There are other cases you can use different connectors:
  • Group search terms (): This will search for cases that include the keyword as well as one or both of the keywords within the parenthesis. For example, Appeal AND (verdict OR judgment)
  • Wildcard (*): Allows for different letters to fill where the asterisk is. For example, Withdr*w – cases that have either withdraw or withdrew
  • Root extender (!): Allows for different endings to the word. For example, Infring! - Search for cases that have any word that begins with Infring (infringe, infringement, infringed)
Intelligent search automatically detects the type of search you're performing. You can search by natural language or keywords.
Query using natural language
Use precise language and avoid additional info. For example, “Find information about property law and easements”.
Keyword search using Boolean operators: Use a single or group of keywords using Boolean operators like AND/OR/NOT. For example, fraud AND damage/car OR automobile/infringement NOT patent.
Use double quotes to search for a phrase. For example, “Due diligence”. Results return cases that contain what's within double quotes.
Yes, the recent search functionality will display your recent searches from the last 48 hours. This functionality doesn’t apply for “Find in results” functionality that is search result specific.
This field will help you find a specific term within your current search results; the term will be highlighted so you can easily identify it.
