I. Intro
Who can perform these steps: Primary administrators and administrators with permission to manage member permissions.
Search permissions control what results a member will see when searching for other members on Lark. For security reasons, many organizations limit members' search permissions.
For example, a large company with many subsidiaries may prefer that the members of a subsidiary can only search for colleagues within their subsidiaries when using Lark.
II. Steps

Permission settings are divided into Main rule and the Supplementary rule sections.

Main rule
There are two options for the main rule:
- No restrictions
- Consistent with visible scope of the organizational structure
No restrictions
After selecting No restrictions for the main rule, members will be able to search for other members by any of the visible fields in members' profiles. These may include name, alias, contact email, alias, staff ID, contact number, department, business email, city, country/region, personnel type, position, work station, extension number and so on.
Primary administrators and administrators with member profile permissions can go to Organization > Member Profile > Fields filters to set which fields can be searched.

If Department is set as a searchable field, then you'll see two options when you select No restrictions for the main rule:
- When searching by department, restrict search scope to visibility scope of the organization (recommended): Members will only be able to use the department field to search for people who appear in their Contacts. Depending on the administrator's choices, organization visibility rules may vary from member to member.
- When searching by department, allow members to search all departments in the organization (proceed with caution): Members will be able to search for any member using the department field.
Note: To learn more about visibility, see How can administrators manage visibility of their organizational structure?
