After you click on the Search In box, you will see 5 records that you worked with recently
2. In the drop-down list of record types, select the record type you want to search for. To search for records of all types, select All Records. The search results will be shown as record cards, also displaying the values in the records’ key fields to make it possible to differentiate among similar records.
Note
You can search for records by parts of a word in records’ key fields, but at least 3 characters must be entered in the Search field

If you do not see a record you need in search results, make sure to check the following Cloud for Customer SSI customization settings for this object type:
• The Hide on search setting

• The Search By field
• If searching for an item associated with an internal (in-org) e-mail address, also make sure that the Include internal e-mails into search results setting is enabled
