== Save a search for reuse
|
|
|
|
A saved search is a convenient way to reuse a search
|
|
that you've created in *Discover*.
|
|
Saved searches are good for adding search results to a dashboard,
|
|
and can also serve as a foundation for building visualizations.

=== Read-only access
|
|
If you don't have sufficient privileges to save searches, the following indicator is
|
|
displayed and the *Save* button is not visible. For more information, refer to <<xpack-security-authorization>>.

|
=== Save a search
|
|
|
|
By default, a saved search stores the query text, filters, and
|
|
current view of *Discover*, including the columns and sort order in the document table, and the {data-source}.
|
|
|
|
. Once you've created a search worth saving, click *Save* in the toolbar.
|
|
. Enter a name for the search.
|
|
. Optionally store <<managing-tags,tags>> and the time range with the search.
|
|
. Click *Save*.
|
|
. To reload your search results in *Discover*, click *Open* in the toolbar, and select the saved search.
|

|
|
If the saved search is associated with a different {data-source} than is currently
|
|
selected, opening the saved search changes the selected {data-source}. The query language
|
|
used for the saved search is also automatically selected.

|
|
. Turn on **Save as new search**.
|
|
