This document intends to give programmers and advanced users of Confluence an overview over the lucene search fields used in Confluence.

Field searches
Confluence data is stored in fields which can be specified in the search. To search a specific field, type the name of the field followed by a colon ":" and then the term you are looking for.

 

 

The field is only valid for the term directly preceeding the colon. The following query will only find "Some" in the title field and will search for Title in the default fields.
