Searching for Series within dataZoa
This is about searching for Series that you have in your dataZoa account. For a discussion about finding Series from the WWW to add to your account, see Searching the World Wide Web for data series.
Within your account, you can locate your series by:
- Title match
- Series Key
- Series Attributes
dataZoa has two search boxes - full account and “on-page”

The simplest usage of the on-page search is a title match, but more sophisticated searches are supported, as documented in the hover help in the search box itself:
