You can rename, change or delete user-added searches within your Cision Communications Cloud as long as your username is assigned System Admin privileges.

Accessing User-Created Keyword Searches:

To locate your user-created Keyword searches, click the person icon in the upper right-hand corner and select Settings.

1. Select Keyword Searches from the Settings menu. Your monitoring Keyword Searches will appear in a panel to the right. 
2. Searches created by Cision Support or Implementation Teams will be labeled with the Support tag. For these type of searches, you will use the built-in change request form to make changes to your monitoring searches. Click here to learn how you make changes to Support labeled searches.
3. Searches that have been user created will not be labeled. You have the option to open and change the terms in User-Created searches. This document describes how you can incorporate changes.

To see the edit options available for user-created searches,

1. Click the upside-down triangle located next to the name of a user search to see editing options.
2. Select the Edit Keyword search button to modify or change the monitoring terms.
3. Click rename to change the name of the search in the Setting area.
4. Select Delete to remove the search so that the system no longer monitors for the terms.

Editing Monitoring Terms for a User-Created Search:

To open the monitoring terms contained in a search and edit them,

1. Click the upside-down triangle located next to the name of a user search.
2. Select the Edit Keyword search button to modify or change the monitoring terms.

Once you open the search, you will see the form used to initially create the search.  Here, you can remove terms from the search by the “X”s. Search terms can be added by typing them in the text box corresponding to their function in the search. Click Save to preserve any changes you make.

Deleting a User-Created Keyword Search:

You can delete searches that you have created within the Cision Communications Cloud.  Deleting a search will remove all traces of the search so that it will no longer bring coverage into your system. 

To remove a user-created search,

1. Click the upside-down triangle located next to the name of a user search.
2. Select the Delete option to remove the search.

Renaming a User-Created Keyword Search:

You can rename user-created searches. The name of a search refers to its internal name used only to find it in the Settings area. The name of the user-created search does not affect the search’s monitoring abilities.

To rename a user-created search,

1. Click the upside-down triangle located next to the name of a user search.
2. Select the Rename option.

Type in the new name for the search and click the Save button.
