search

Service performs searches for various information in ADEI and source databases.

Format of search string

The search string consists of four components:

• The first component defines type of the search. Examples are item search, channel value search, datetime search.
• Second component provides some options. For example, demands exact or fuzzy match
• Third and fourth components are type-dependent and containing search string and additional limits

The format is as follows:

[type/module specification] [global flags] <search string> [limits]

Everything besides search string is optional. By default if the type is not specified, the search for channel and group names is performed.
