# Indicator Query

Search for and manage indicators in Cortex XSOAR 6.15.

You can search for indicators using any of the available search fields. This is a partial list of the available search fields.

| Field                   | Description                                                                                                          |

| `sourceInstances`       | A specific instance of an indicator feed or enrichment integration.                                                  |
| `expirationSource`      | The source (script, manual, etc.) which last set the indicator's expiration status.                                  |
| `tags`                  | Tags applied to indicators.                                                                                          |
| `comments`              | Search for keywords within indicators’ comments.                                                                     |
| `isShared`              | (Multi-tenant) Whether the indicator is shared to tenant                                                             |

You can use a wildcard query, which finds indicators containing terms that match the specified wildcard. For example, the `*` pattern matches any sequence of 0 or more characters, and `?` matches any single character. For a regex query, use the following value:

`"/.*\\?.*/"`

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xsoar-6-threat-intel-management-guides/6.15/configure-indicators/indicator-management/indicator-query.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
