Overview

The Select content scans option enables you to view the results for specific content scans. You can choose to view the results for one or more locations, one or more document sets, or a mixture of both. This flexibility enables you to focus solely on the scans most relevant to your task, saving you time and minimizing noise from extraneous scan results.

When using the Select content scan option with the basic filters panel or the refine option, apply your filters and refinements before selecting the scan(s). If you choose the scan(s) first, your selection(s) will be cleared once filters or refinements are applied.

Applying filters or refinements before selecting scans automatically converts them into advanced filters, which are retained. Because advanced filters persist, you can apply them either before or after choosing the scan(s) without losing your selection(s).
