Finding something again

Searching by filename, and the library’s four filters.

The filter bar sits in an open project below the folder tiles: a search field and four dropdowns. At the far right, the legend of verification seals opens.

The signed-in product speaks German, so its labels are quoted in German below, with the English rendering in italics.

Search matches the filename

The field „Im Projekt nach Dateiname suchen …“ (Search the project by filename …) searches the original filename — the name the file was uploaded under. Case does not matter, and the text need not sit at the start: beach finds 2026-07_BeachCampaign.jpg.

Search covers the open project only. There is no search across all projects; the route that works instead is set out under What verstag cannot do today.

The search starts shortly after the last keystroke, not on every character.

What search does not cover: project and folder names, the contents of Content Credentials, format names, notes.

The four filters

Each dropdown rests at „alle“ (all).

„KI-Quelle“ (AI source) — whether the file declares itself as AI-generated.

OptionWhat it shows
„KI-generiert“ (AI-generated)The file’s provenance names an AI source.
„Ohne KI-Nachweis“ (No AI evidence)Everything else — including assets not yet checked.

„Nachweis“ (Evidence) — whether Content Credentials sit in the file.

OptionWhat it shows
„Mit Content Credentials“ (With Content Credentials)The check found a manifest.
„Geprüft, ohne Nachweis“ (Checked, no evidence)The check is through and found none.

„Status“ — the outcome of the check.

„Format“ — the container: PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, AVIF, HEIC, GIF, MP4, MOV. The list is longer than the uploadable formats, because more can be checked than can be uploaded.

The filters are named differently from the tiles

The same state carries one name in the filter bar and another on the tile:

Option under „Status“Seal on the tile
„Vertrauenswürdig“ (Trusted)„Verifiziert“ (Verified)
„Signiert, nicht vertraut“ (Signed, not trusted)„Nicht vertrauenswürdig“ (Not trustworthy)
„Ohne gültige Signatur“ (No valid signature)„Ohne Nachweis“ (No evidence)
„Ungeprüft“ (Unchecked)„Ausstehend“ (Pending)

Three negatives that mean three different things

They sound interchangeable and are not.

„Ohne KI-Nachweis“ means: no AI source recorded. That includes files never checked.

„Geprüft, ohne Nachweis“ means: the check ran and found no Content Credentials. Unchecked assets are not in this set.

„Ohne gültige Signatur“ means: the check ran, and there is either no manifest or a manifest whose signature does not hold up. So this option is wider than the previous one — it takes the broken manifests in as well.

To find out which case applies, open the asset: the filter says who is in the set, the result says why.

Everything combines, and everything lives in the address

The filters combine with and — every additional choice makes the list smaller. Project and folder apply on top; they are navigation, not filters.

„Filter zurücksetzen“ (Reset filters) appears as soon as a filter or a search is active, and clears exactly those. It leaves project and folder alone.

The whole filter state lives in the address bar, project and folder included. An address with filters set can be passed on, and it opens the same selection for whoever receives it — provided they are a member of the same workspace and see the project.

An unknown value in the address is ignored: the list is then wider, rather than an error page appearing. The same goes for links to something deleted: a deleted folder leads to the unfiltered project. A deleted or unknown project, or one restricted for you, leads to the overview of all projects, with the notice „Dieses Projekt gibt es nicht mehr, oder du hast keinen Zugriff darauf.“ (This project no longer exists, or you have no access to it.) An older link naming only a folder leads into that folder’s project.

There is no sort order

The grid always shows the newest assets first. There is no sorting by name, size or verification status, ascending or descending.
