  • Control access to pages, APIs and UI elements of pages.

A variety of search options

The Store and Publisher has the following search options.

  • Search history - Ability to reuse search queries without having to retype the query.
  • Search by adding keywords - Ability to add one or more keywords in the search query.
  • Search using the advanced search - Ability to search based on asset attributes, tags and/or categories. The asset attributes vary based on the asset type. This search option is only available in the Publisher.

For more information, see Searching for an Asset in the Publisher and Searching for an Asset in the Store.

Search history capabilitiesWSO2 ES is capable of tracking the user search history in the Publisher and Store. When assets are searched for in the Publisher or Store, those search queries are automatically stored. Therefore, users do not lose their search history results even when the session is destroyed. Furthermore, WSO2 ES maintains the search history based on the asset type (e.g., the search history for gadgets and the search history for sites are different). Therefore, separate search histories for each asset type are available in WSO2 ES. 
Asset sorting via the Store Sorting of assets based on the popularity, name and/or date created.
Store social platform
