Search for "last edited by" or "last saved by"

Hi forum,

author:
authors:
Search documents for the specified author.
Examples:
author:"John Doe"
author:"Jane Doe"

Is it also possible to search for the person who last edited (i.e. last saved) certain files?

Code: Select all

last-author:"Donna"

There are *a lot* of these property related functions. The general way to discover them:

• Right-click the header of the result list (for example on "Name")
• Select Add columns from the context menu [1]
• Select the right property(/ies). In this case Everything Properties > Document: Last author.
• Click OK
• Right-click Last Author in the header of the result list
• Select Search for Last Author from the context menu.

In the search bar last-author: will be shown.
The column(s) can be removed if no longer needed.


[1] Common properties are listed directly in the context menu; in this case Document > Origin > Last Author
