## Definition

* **Type:** Struct
* **Namespace:** [UnityEditor.Search](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/search.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEditor

```csharp
public struct SearchMonitorView : IDisposable
```

## Remarks

This struct provides a view on Search's main [PropertyDatabases](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/search/propertydatabase.md). Search offers some convenient [PropertyDatabases](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/search/propertydatabase.md) to cache data. If this data comes from scenes or assets, those will be invalidated automatically whenever the scene or asset changes. If it comes from another source, you need to manage the invalidation process yourself with [Invalidate](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/search/searchmonitorview/invalidate.md) and [InvalidateDocument](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityeditor/search/searchmonitorview/invalidatedocument.md).
