This article explains how to configure refine search in classic search. Acquia DAM's redesigned search experience offers even more refine search options.
As an Acquia DAM admin, you can choose the fields that appear and the order they appear in for your users in the Refine Search area. For instance, if metadata is most important for helping them quickly find the assets they need, metadata filtering options can be shown before any other filtering options. Or if file types are a preferred searching method, that filtering option can be shown before other options. It's really up to you and what works best for your site and your users.
You can also choose to not have refine search filters display. If searching document text or for assets with attached documents isn't done at all, you can choose to have those fields not display in the Refine Search area.
Here are the fields that can be reordered and shown (or not):
You must have the Administrate Refine Search permission to update the refine search display.
The refine search can be configured from the Admin app by selecting Search Settings in the left navigation, then Refine Search. Drag and drop the filters into the order you want or click the arrows to move them up and down into a preferred order.
You can also choose to have child categories and metadata sorted in the refine search.
Sort child categories by the highest number of results (child categories with the most assets included display before those with fewer assets) or child category order (alphabetically).
Metadata fields (e.g. color) will always be sorted alphabetically in refine search. Metadata values (e.g. blue, green) can be sorted by asset count (metadata values with the most assets display before those with the least) or by admin order (values display in the order an admin selected when setting up this field).
