# Searching policies by category or methodology name

## 1. Searching by Category

Searching within a single group of categories, a logical 'OR' is applied. Methodologies found within any one of the specified categories will be included in the search results.

Across different groups of categories, a logical 'AND' is applied. Methodologies that meet all category criteria across groups will included in the search results.

## 2. Searching by Methodology Name

Guided Search further enhances its functionality by allowing the combination of category-based searches with specific methodology name searches. This dual-search capability enables users to refine their search results more precisely.
