 ### Search with keywords
 When searching with keywords, dbt Explorer searches through your resource metadata (such as resource type, resource name, column name, source name, tags, schema, database, version, alias/identifier, and package name) and returns any matches.
 
+With keyword search, Explorer provides a side panel (to the right of the main section) where you can filter your search results further by resource type. You can filter by resource tags for all resources or model access levels within the **Models** option. As an example, when searching for “sale”, the results will include all resources with the keyword “sale” in their metadata; and, you can choose **Model** and **Source** in the side panel to filter those results further to only display models or sources with the keyword match.  
+
+For a search on an exact column name, the results will include all relational nodes with that specific column in their schemas. If there is a match, the search result will include a notice indicating that the resource contains the specified column.
