For more information, see [About searching on GitHub](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/search-github/getting-started-with-searching-on-github/about-searching-on-github).\n\n> \\[!TIP]\n>\n> * This article contains links to example searches on the GitHub.com website, but you can use the same search filters in any GitHub platform. In the linked example searches, replace `github.com` with the hostname for your GitHub platform.\n> * For a list of search syntaxes that you can add to any search qualifier to further improve your results, see [Understanding the search syntax](/en/enterprise-cloud@latest/search-github/getting-started-with-searching-on-github/understanding-the-search-syntax).\n> * Use quotations around multi-word search terms. For example, if you want to search for issues with the label \"In progress,\" you'd search for `label:\"in progress\"`. Search is not case sensitive.\n\n## Searching within a user's or organization's packages\n\nTo find packages owned by a certain user or organization, use the `user` or `org` qualifier.\n\n| Qualifier                           | Example                                                                                                                               |\n| ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| <code>user:<em>USERNAME</em></code> | [**`user:codertocat`**](https://github.com/search?q=user%3Acodertocat\\&type=RegistryPackages) matches packages owned by @codertocat   |\n| <code>org:<em>ORGNAME</em></code>   | [**`org:github`**](https://github.com/search?q=org%3Agithub\\&type=RegistryPackages) matches packages owned by the GitHub organization |\n\n## Filtering by package visibility\n\nTo filter your search by whether a package is public or private, use the `is` qualifier.\n\n| Qualifier    | Example                                                                                                                                                 |\n| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| `is:public`  | [**is:public angular**](https://github.com/search?q=is%3Apublic+angular\\&type=RegistryPackages) matches public packages that contain the word \"angular\" |\n| `is:private` | [**is:private php**](https://github.com/search?q=is%3Aprivate+php\\&type=RegistryPackages) matches private packages that contain the word \"php\"          |"}
