Adding and Saving a Search to a Folder

Ever find yourself recreating the same search over and over again on Lexis + or Lexis + AI? Save time and effort by storing just the search (without the retrieved documents) so you can quickly re-run or refine your search later.

Save the Search in a Folder:

  • Run the search
  • Click Actions > Add search to folder
  • Select a folder or choose Create New Folder, name it, and Create
  • Click Save


You can easily re-run saved searches directly from the folder or edit your original query or post-search filters if needed.

Re-run or Edit Filters:

  • To re-run original Search > click Folders > open the folder > click Re-run saved search
  • To edit post-search filters, follow above steps but select > Search for these terms using the current selected filter parameters > Edit then Save

This method helps streamline your research process, making it easier to update your searches as new information becomes available. Enjoy a more efficient research experience with your saved search logic.  If you have any questions, contact your Knowledge & Research Consultant, your account team, or your law school Lexis representative!
