This article explains how to find uploaded contracts and My templates using various search and filter options in LegalOn.
*To search across all data in LegalOn, see “How to Search Files, Clauses, Matters.”
Search Methods
You can search using the following four methods. Combine them for more precise results:
Free-text search
Filter by workspace
Apply advanced filters (contracts only)
Sort by file information
💡Info:
Each page shows up to 50 contracts. You can view up to 10,000 contracts (200 pages). If there are more than 10,000 contracts, follow the instructions in “Download a List of Executed Contracts” to download the full list.
1. Free-text search
You can perform keyword searches within the [Vault] or [My templates] lists.
Steps:
Open [Vault] or [My templates] list.
Click the search box, enter your keyword(s), and press [Enter].
Searchable fields include:
File contents (text inside the document)
File name
Contract title
Special provisions
Your company name
Counterparty name
The results will be displayed in the same list view.
Which version of a contract is included in the search?
When you search from Vault, only the latest version of each contract is included in the search.
If a keyword appears in an older version’s text or file name —but not in the latest version— then you won’t see that contract in the results.
💡Info:
To search across past versions, open the file details page and use the version list.
2. Filter by workspace
Use the [All locations] button (upper-left of the screen) to limit your search to a specific workspace.
3. Apply advanced filters (Contracts Only)
To narrow down results further within the contracts list:
Click the [Filter] button.
Apply filters using the following criteria:
Tab | Fields |

・You can also apply filters within each field.
4. Sort by file information
