Summary

So, there we have it, an overview of the multiple ways to search in Salesforce.

Example

Consider the problem of indexing the term “Tokyo Prefecture” and a subsequent search for Kyoto in Japanese.

Operators

Combine multiple words with logic and grouping by using operators to form a more complex query. You can use the following special operators to focus your text search. Operator support is case-insensitive.

SearchQuery Character Limits

If the SearchQuery string is longer than 10,000 characters, no result rows are returned. If SearchQuery is longer than 4,000 characters, any logical operators are removed. For example, the AND operator in a statement with a SearchQuery that’s 4,001 characters will default to the OR operator, which could return more results than expected.

Reserved Characters

Reserved characters, if specified in a text search, must be escaped (preceded by the backslash \ character) to be properly interpreted. An error occurs if you do not precede reserved characters with a backslash. This is true even if the SearchQuery is enclosed in double quotes.

FIND Clauses in Apex

In Apex, the value of the FIND clause is demarcated with single quotes. For example:
