Ability to make search return exact matches or at least prioritize exact matches in the search results

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Currently there is no way to perform a search that will only return exact matches because the words will be tokenized by lucene.

      If there is no way to make the search return only exact matches at the very least I'd expect it to prioritize exact matches in the search and show them first?
