Saving and Managing Search Queries in Primo VE
- Last updated
- Save as PDF
Primo allows signed-in users to save searches between sessions and receive email alerts when there is an update to the saved search query. After a query has been saved, the My Favorites > Saved Searches page allows users to perform the following operations on saved searches: view, delete, create an RSS feed, and set/clear an alert.
Email alerts are sent weekly for both Primo and Primo VE. For Primo, the day on which the report is sent is based on the creation date of the saved search (see Configuring Alerts). For Primo VE, the Saved Searches Alerts job runs every Saturday at midnight (see Viewing Scheduled Jobs.)
