For example if I want to filter the search for all files where the owner is not me what would I do? owner:"McLeod, Colin" would give me all of mine, is there a way to do the opposite?
-, !=, <>, and NOT don't seem to work.
That's right. This would be a feature request :) I'll raise this with our product team.
Hi @cmcleod - the minus operator should work to exclude. It mostly works in excluding a key word. If you want to drill down more on content, you can also utilize our filters. There's a ton of metadata not shown in the main filter (due to UX constraints), but you can check out what we bring in by going to the small circle 'i' icon in the search bar.
I think that's the issue, - works for keywords, but it doesn't appear to work for filter facets. For the facets, there's no select all option that allows the user to select all and then deselect themselves. For example a search for * app:sharepoint owner:"me" would give all my files, but what if I wanted all files that aren't mine. *app:sharepoint owner:-"me" doesn't work.
