Hi! Does anyone know why the 'Global' option in the global search dropdown list is missing?

I made sure that the configuration in my instance follows what is stated in the following KB article. But still the issue persists.

We can give try to below: 

 

  1. Check user role permissions 
  2. Verify Search Configurations
  3. Check the application scope
  4. Check if search is disabled in UI Policies 
  5. Clear cache and check 

 

Let me know if you need any more information in details for above mentioned steps. I will be glad to help.

Hello, 

if you still have the issue, you might need to clear the role specified in the sys_property : glide.ui.can_search.

I did it in our instance and it fixed the issue.

 

Thanks and regards
