# Search
To run a search either on the entire system or on the single entities, click the icon on the top left corner. A search bar will appear prompting you to enter the search criteria.
The **VFS drop-down list** allows you to run the search either on all VFS or on a selected VFS.
The **Folder, File and View chips** are automatically enabled, so the search is executed including these entities. To remove either one or the other, click on it and the check will be removed.
The search can be run by **Name**, **Metadata**, or **Tag**, which is selected in the drop-down menu on the left of the **Search by** field.
When you select **Metadata**, a drop-down menu will allow you to select the metadata type you want to search. Enter the metadata value you want to search.
When you select **Tag**, all existing tags will be available in the drop-down menu.
As soon as you stop typing the search criteria, the system will look for the entities, which will be listed below the search bar. Clicking the relevant result, it will open in its section.
