Hi @marinam,

WorkflowGen does not provide a feature to search for keywords inside documents/attachments.

One solution would be to implement a custom application in the process that reads those documents and store the content in a process data. This way you can search using the “Contains” operator and find all the requests that contain a keyword in that data.

Regards,  
Eddy.
