Use the Content Search technology preview

You can search for specific content (Example — assignments, lessons, questions, Math Apps, Course Modules, etc.) within the new Content Search UI in Möbius.

IMPORTANT: New Content Search features are being rolled out in stages as a technology preview. Updates are planned on a fortnightly schedule separate from other Möbius updates, and new features will be added and enabled when ready. Current features from the Content Repository may be missing from the technology preview at this time; check out Understand the Content Repository for help with those features.
