Searching Tasks - trillium_discovery - 17.1

You can search for tasks for all jobs run against the current repository or all repositories on the current repository server. Use the Show All option to return a view of all available tasks. Use the Filtered Search option to narrow your search using one or more conditions. For each condition, optionally add one or more sub-groups. Adding a sub-group refines the search by categorizing the results.
