# Search by action setting

## Learn how to search for actions by their settings in the APIANT automation editor. Filter automations by specific setting names and values to quickly locate and review matching actions.

Actions may have named settings. They will appear above any input field mappings:

This action has three settings named "scope", "encrypted value?", and "error handling".

You can search an automation to find all actions having a certain setting with a specified value.

For example, in the action above has a "scope" setting with a value of "My account". Let's search to find that.

First, open the search (see [Searching](https://help.apiant.com/searching?hsLang=en)) and select "action settings" as the search criteria:
