Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

TQL Query Editor
This feature enables you to build and edit TQL queries.
To access |
To open a new TQL query in the TQL Query Editor, go to the Modeling Studio, click the New button and select Query. To open an existing TQL query in the TQL Query Editor, go to the Resources tab of the left pane in the Modeling Studio and select Queries as the Resource type. Right-click a TQL query in the tree and select Open Query or double click a TQL query or drag a TQL query onto the empty canvas. The TQL query opens in a new tab. |
Important information | To save your TQL query, use the Save button on the Modeling Studio main toolbar. |

Advanced Pane
This area displays the properties, conditions, and cardinality for the selected query node and relationship.
Important information |

If the window is not wide enough to display all the tabs, use the left and right arrows to move to the required tab. | |
Click Show List to display a list of the available tabs for the current module. You can select a tab from the list. | |
Attributes | Displays the attribute conditions defined for the query node or the relationship. For details, see Attributes Tab. |
Cardinality | Cardinality defines how many query nodes you expect to have at the other end of a relationship. For example, in a relationship between a node and an IP Address, if the cardinality is 1:3, the TQL query retrieves only those nodes that are connected to between one and three IP Addresses. For details, see Cardinality Tab. |
Data Sources |
Displays the data sources set for the selected query node. Note This tab appears only in the Modeling Studio. |
Details |
Displays the following information:
|
Edit | Click Edit to open the relevant dialog box for the selected tab. |
Element Layout |
Displays the attributes selection for the selected query node or relationship. It lists the attributes selected to be included in the query results (when Specific Attributes is selected as the attributes condition). It also lists the excluded attributes and any selected qualifiers for attributes. For details, see Element Layout Tab. Note This tab appears only in the Modeling Studio. |
Element Type |
Displays the subtype conditions defined for the query node or relationship. For details, see Element Type Tab. Note This tab appears only in the Modeling Studio. |
Enrichment Rules |

If the Enrichment rule is used to update the attributes of a CI, click Edit to open the Query Node/Relationship Definition dialog box and edit the rule if required. For details, see Query Node/Relationship Definition Dialog Box. Note This tab appears only in Enrichment Manager. |
