# Searching for Features in the Project: Simple Search

You can search for features (geographic elements displayed on the map) in project layers based on the values of their attributes.

{% hint style="info" %}
The attributes used for simple searches must be **indexed** in the data source and selected in the project layer. Contact your JMap Cloud administrator if you want certain attributes to be available for simple searches.
{% endhint %}

2. Enter your search terms. As you type, a list displays all features in the project whose attributes match your terms, across all layers.
3. Click a feature in the list to locate it. The feature is selected and the map centers on it.<br>
