# Search for Devices

When managing your organization's devices, use the Search bar to quickly locate them.

## Search for a Device

1. Sign into the Unified Portal.
2. On the header, click **Help Desk**.
3. Click **Devices** in the sub-header.
4. On the Help Desk **Devices** page, click the **Search by keyword** field.
5. Select a filter from the drop-down list. Filters include:
  1. **User:** The username of a person.
  2. **Device Serial:** The identity device's registered serial number.
  3. **Legible ID**: If your organization issues IDEMIA cards via UCMS, this displays the printed serial number on the card.
    - For **existing devices**, the ID does not display the first 10 digits of your IDEMIA card (the BAP number and the IC embedded date). For example, if your existing card number is *123456-7890-1234567890*, it displays in the **LEGIBLE ID** column as XXXXXX-XXXX-1234567890.
    - For **new devices**, all digits of your IDEMIA card, including the BAP number and IC embedded date, display. For example, if your new card number is *123456-7890-1234567890*, then it displays in the **LEGIBLE ID** column as 123456-7890-1234567890.
6. Enter characters and press **Enter**.
7. Your search results display.
