• A specific folder path including Notes 2020: folderpath("Sara_Shackleton_Dec2000_June2001_2/Notes 2020”)

Path search

Path is the file, folder, or directory structure from which the document was collected. You can search for an individual file or a file path and all child folders. Include "/!" to include child folders:

• An individual file: path("/sara_shackleton_000_1_1_1.pst/shackleton-s/Sara_Shackleton_Dec2000_June2001_2/Notes Folders/All documents/David Minns.msg”)
• Specific path and it’s descendants: path("/sara_shackleton_000_1_1_1.pst/shackleton-s/Sara_Shackleton_Dec2000_June2001_2/Notes Folders/!”)
• Partial path: path("!/Sara_Shackleton_Dec2000_June2001_2/Notes Folders/!”)

When searching with path, you must include a leading "/". The search must end with "/!" unless a file file name is included.
