Last Published: October 1, 2025

Yes, it is possible to search for multiple business names using the Business and Facilities Search in ArcGIS Business Analyst Web App. This reduces the amount of time users require to search for multiple business names.

Searching for multiple business names can be done by separating the search terms with a semicolon. When searching for multiple terms separated by "and" or a comma, no results are returned. To search for more than one business name, follow the steps below.
