How does an admin enable search filters for an object?

Enabling search filters for an object primarily involves adjustments within the internal organization settings. This setting allows you to configure how search operates at an organizational level, including the management of which objects are visible and how their associated data can be filtered during searches. Enabling search filters can be crucial for improving usability, as it allows users to refine their search results based on specific criteria related to the data of the object.

While configurations in profiles and permission sets may influence visibility and access to certain records, they do not directly enable search filters. Similarly, running an administrative query would not provide the necessary configuration change required to set up search filters; instead, it might be used for data retrieval purposes. Thus, to implement search filters effectively, it is essential to make adjustments through the internal organization settings to provide a comprehensive search experience.
