Improved search function on profile pages

In order to make it easier than ever to add team members and devices to profiles, Blackline has enabled a search feature in the contact and device selection modals. These modals appear in the alert profile, notification profile and contact group pages of the portal, and allow team members and devices to be assigned to these profiles. The new search functionality will make it easy to find specific team members by typing in their name, ID or another piece of identifying information.

IMPROVED SEARCH FUNCTION ON PROFILE PAGES

When selecting a contact or device to add to a alert/notification profile or a contact group, you will now see a search box at the top of the modal. Type in some or all of your search query, and click search or press the enter key to initiate the search function.

Blackline Safety

The modal will return all of the possible contacts or devices that match your query, filtering down the list of options and making your selection process faster and more efficient.

To clear the search and go back to the full list, click the show all button.

NOTE: It may take up to two minutes for new information to be available in the search results. If you have created a new team member or made a change to an existing resource, you may not see these changes in the search results right away. Wait a moment for the system to update and try again.
