3. Fuzzy Search

Fuzzy Search is a search technique that allows you to find similar words in addition to exact matches

Previous step: Search Options


Fuzzy Search retrieves results that differ by only one or two letters from the search term, and it is useful with misspellings and spelling variations. 

To enable it, check the Fuzzy option and launch the Search. The results will contain both the extract matches and the variants.

For example, when searching for “house”, fuzzy search also finds “howse, “horse” and “howses”.
