Firefox Quick Search bookmarks for Broadcom support & community

  • 1.  Firefox Quick Search bookmarks for Broadcom support & community

    Posted Jul 24, 2019 04:27 AM
    In Firefox, a Quick Search bookmark can be used to perform custom searches directly from the URL bar. I created a bunch of Firefox QuickSearch URLs for Automic, and later updated them for CA. Unfortunately, many of them have broken again now. I won't update them again, but here are two I use frequently.

    Broadcom CA Support – open specific case

    Location: https://ca-broadcom.wolkenservicedesk.com/esd/allcases?case=%s
    Keyword: bci

    Description: Go to a specific Broadcom CA Support incident/case.

    Broadcom CA Community – general search

    Location: https://community.broadcom.com/enterprisesoftware/search?executeSearch=true&SearchTerm=%22%s%22%2c&l=1
    Keyword: bcc
    Description: Search for discussion threads containing a keyword.

     

    Details:

    • %s is replaced by whatever you type after the keyword.
    • %22 represents the " character, and is used to ensure that keywords containing spaces or punctuation work more reliably.
    • These are not semantic URLs, obviously.
