Overview #
In IQNECT 26.1, Semantic Search has been enhanced to deliver more relevant results and faster navigation across complex project content. The search logic has been upgraded to a hybrid model, improving match accuracy and increasing confidence in returned results.
This release also introduces Quick Filters, allowing users to refine searches instantly, save filter configurations, and set defaults for repeatable workflows.
Together, these improvements reduce time spent searching and help teams locate the right tracker items with less effort.
Prerequisites #
- The project you want to search is available in your workspace.
- You have permission to view tracker content in the selected project.
- You are using IQNECT version 26.1 or later.

IQNECT returns results using the updated hybrid search model, providing more relevant matches and higher scoring results.
Review matching results #
Semantic Search results are ranked by relevance, to see the results in more detail open up Advanced Search using the funnel icon at the top-right of the Semantic Search window.
This helps users quickly identify the most meaningful tracker items without relying on exact keyword matches.

Default Filters appear automatically when Advanced Search is opened, indicated by the star icon.
Results and Next Steps #
You’ve successfully used the improved Semantic Search and applied Quick Filters to refine results.
Use this workflow to locate tracker content faster, reduce manual navigation, and create repeatable search setups for complex projects as your work evolves.
