# Trash

#### **Summary**

The **Trash** function can be used to manually remove items from the search results for a specific search term. Such entries are not deleted from the product base; they are simply no longer found in this specific search. For example, this lets you exclude `whiteboard markers` from the list of products resulting from the `whiteboard` search query.

**Trash** entries are represented as an individual page tab for **Search term rules** page.

#### **Adding Trash entry**

Information about Trash entries is represented with **list of entries** ![](/files/Ph63z0daepEWYQihI5Tp) and **Search term** ![](/files/Ehk1tMw4qBIWvCgJj7rh) where trash entries are excluded

Products can be added to **Trash** in the [Cockpit](/docs/discovery/cockpit.md) by dropping it into blue “delete” panel, which appears on top of the grid while dragging a product

#### **Managing Trash entries**

All created **Trash** entries are listed in the grid together with their attributes.

The grid lets you **filter** entries:

* hide/show entries deleted in this transaction ![](/files/Sqx7q5UTXXhUawSHwnqh)
* search for a specific entry ![](/files/TA2cmO6o32bttrwoI2Mj)

The following **operations** are available for transactions in the grid:

* clone to another channel ![](/files/BE54BC6URRrdtVW1CXtk)
* delete ![](/files/vLFbeBNtr8ONFAVVFUOV)
* bulk clone and delete operations are available for multiple selected (by ![](/files/p8k00RPckDSQPHooq4Gh)) entries

> Any creation or change to an entry will mark it as locked ![](/files/g0DM13QsLjGG1HqSA542) and require [saving the transaction](/docs/user-interface/editing-configurations-managing-transactions.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fact-finder.com/docs/discovery/search-term-rules/trash.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
