# Create a New Extended Search

{% hint style="success" %}
**Note:** You are limited to 5 active searches running simultaneously. However, you can pause or delete an extended search at any time.

From the left navigation menu, select ![](https://4048883401-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwMLlMoFBtKJa8ptd3zaw%2Fuploads%2FLGBlwxuVWsrxNsjYUMjf%2Fdiscover-v2%20\(1\).svg?alt=media\&token=8a0e56eb-ff89-4046-8e72-ad2b503f8bf9) **\[Discover]** → **Extended Search** → [**My Searches**](https://app.impact.com/secure/advertiser/discover/fr/search/searches.ihtml?u=%2Fsecure%2Fdiscover%2Fsearch%2Findex.html%3Froute%3D%2Fsearches%26layout%3DIFRAME).
2. In the upper-right corner, select **Create Search**.

Select the ![](https://4048883401-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwMLlMoFBtKJa8ptd3zaw%2Fuploads%2FwXho9QKP3e4iU4ZKUSJ5%2F167ebb8cc30303.svg?alt=media\&token=a046e9f0-63aa-46f6-8a35-f73973fd326c) **\[Checkbox]** to include results from Marketplace and an external network.
   * **Marketplace Results** results are “In-Network” results matched against the [Discover Overview](/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/performance-program/recruiting-partners/discover/discover-overview.md)
   * **Extended Results** are “Out-Of-Network” results not matching against results in the Discover marketplace.
5. Select your desired [partner size](/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/reach-out-to-partners/partner-management/partner-size-rating-criteria.md).
6. Select which channels to include in your search results.
   * Channel options include Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter/X, and Pinterest.
7. Optionally, select your location, audience countries, and desired languages.
8. Select **Save**.

   * Once a search is saved, results should start to generate within a few minutes but can take up to 24 hours maximum to populate. The search is ongoing with up to about 100 new results being added on a weekly basis. Learn how to review your extended search results.
   * To prevent overwhelming results, searches are automatically paused if there are 100 unreviewed search results. Searches are also paused when they return fewer than 5 results.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/performance-program/recruiting-partners/extended-search/create-a-new-extended-search.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
