Find all your saved items with Omnivore's new advanced search
Omnivore uses search to filter items in your library. You can use a simple keyword search or our advanced search syntax to find items.
Searching for text
Omnivore will perform full text search across library item's content, title, description, and site by default. You can search for specific terms by quoting your terms, like this “Space Tacos”.
By default all results that match your search will be returned in the order they were saved. To change your search to relevance use the sort:score parameter.
Filtering by label
You can filter your search based on labels using AND and OR clauses. You can also negate a label search to find pages that do not have a certain label.
Some examples:
label:Newsletterfinds all pages that have the label Newsletterlabel:Cooking,Fitnessfinds all your pages with either the Cooking or Fitness labelslabel:Newsletterlabel:Surfing finds all pages with both the Newsletter and Surfing labelslabel:Coding -label:Newsfinds all pages with the Coding label that do not have the News label
Filtering by archive status
The in: filter is used to filter search by archive status. The options are:
in:inbox(the default): show unarchived itemsin:archive: show archived itemsin:all: Show all items regardless of archive state
Filtering by read state
The is: filter is used to filter search by read state. Note that in Omnivore 'read' means fully read, not just opened.
The is: filter options are:
is:read: Show only items that are fully readis:unread: Show unread items
Filtering by type
The type: filter is used to filter search by type.
type:article: Show only articlestype:file: Show only filestype:pdf: Show only PDFstype:highlights: Show your highlights
Finding highlights
You can find your highlights by using the type:highlights filter or find saved items with highlights using the has:highlights filter.
Filtering by save/publish dates
You can filter your searches based on the time they were saved or published using the saved: and published: filters. These filters take two dates to create a date range. The * wildcard will accept any date.
For Example:
saved:2022-04-21..*All items saved since 2022-04-21published:2020-01-01..2022-02-02All items published between 2020-01-01 and 2022-02-02published:*..2020-01-01All items published before 2020-01-01
Sorting
By default all search results in Omnivore are sorted by saved date. This puts the most recently saved items at the top of your library. You can use sort options to change the library order:
sort:saved: Sort by saved datesort:updated: Sort by time the item was updated, for example having a label or highlight added.sort:score: Sort by query term relevance.
