Field Searching (Search Operators for Metadata Searches and Chat Operators)
Every search performed will look in one or more fields for the keyword(s) being searched. By default, the search bar will search both the 'title' and 'body' fields of documents. This means that results will be returned if the keywords you’re looking for are found in either the body of the document or the title (or both). For example, a search of just the word 'drugs' in the search bar is equivalent to: title:drugs OR body:drugs.
Most searches will not require specifying a field name, since title and body are automatically searched. However, other metadata fields can be searched in addition to title and body, for example:
- title:alphabay
- hackishness:1
- domain:drugs.onion
The list of metadata fields is below. When searching within these fields, type the following search operators in the search bar, and then the query content:
- inUrl:
- contentType:
- headers.server:
- headers.last-modified:
- title: (to search within this field exclusively)
- body: (to search within this field exclusively)
- domain:
- leak:
- network:
- hackishness:
Multiple values within the same field can be searched in a number of ways. The following examples are equivalent:
- domain:(drugs.onion OR crime.onion)
- domain:drugs.onion OR domain:crime.onion
You can also look for phrases within specific fields using double quotes:
- title:"Forum rules"
Subqueries within fields are supported:
- title:(darkowl AND (drugs OR crime))
Note: The search operators are case sensitive. When searching using fields, do not use a a space after colon ':'
Field Searching (Search Operators for Chat Networks)
There are several search operators that can help you filter to content from Discord or Telegram servers, channels, and users.
- The telegram: operator filters to channels, IDs, or users from Telegram.
- The discord: operator filters to servers, channels, IDs, or users from Discord.
- The user: operator filters to usernames or user IDs from Telegram, Discord, and Forums.
- To exclude telegram, discord, or user operators: preface the search operator with a hyphen: -telegram:”EVILX.su Leaks Chat”
