Searching for assets with Blank Attribute value


iRAM Administrator (3152156135) | asked May 30 '13, 12:01 p.m.
Hello,
I am trying to search for assets that have a Blank value in their attribute but, not getting any results (there are actually many assets whose attribute is blank).

I tried the following options to search for the empty attribute:
1- Left the "Attribute Value" field empty.
2- Used ''
3- Used the ! sign

But, none of that works.

Any hints?

Thanks

Blank by itself is not a valid attribute value. There must be some characters other than blanks.

Maybe you are looking for attributes that aren't set. (i.e. have no value for the asset). That uses this weird syntax:
* !attribute:('test'='*')

Here there is an asterick followed by a space followed by exclamation point, attribute.  Basically the first * says find all assets then the space means AND then the !attribute means those assets that DO NOT have any value set for the test attribute.

If you are looking for assets that have a blank somewhere in the attribute's value (e.g. 'a b') then there isn't a way to find that out.
