Overview
After running a search that is very relevant to you for whatever reason, you can mark it as favorite. Searches saved as favorites are available to easily re-run, share with other Devo users in your domain and much more.
What permissions do I need?
To add a search as favorite, you don’t need any other permission apart from that required to run searches, at least the View level of the Finders permission (visit Run a search using a finder to know more).
