+## Search Solution
 The search will return Assets, Glossary Terms and Schema Elements that match the search criteria.
-As the asset search is to be performed against on one or more repositories a search engine will be used. 
+As the asset search is to be performed against on one or more repositories a search engine will be used.
 The search will be performed using the existing properties of the asset, glossary terms and/or schema elements.
 Indexing will be performed by the Asset Catalog OMAS according to supported zones.
 The search result will contain: guid, name (name or displayName), description, qualifiedName, classifications, zoneMembership (the basic properties of the element).
 
 In order to get the full context of the element, a second call is performed.
 At this step, the specific relationships are traverse for getting the connection to the asset and to get the schema type that is behind the given asset.
