# VPC Search

By default, Hava builds your diagrams at a VPC level. A single diagram is generated for each VPC within your cloud provider account.

However, you might want to combine multiple VPC into one diagram view. For instance, a common use case is creating a single diagram view of all the VPC connected via a VPC peering connection.

### **Basic Examples**

| Search                         | Result                                                                                         |
| ------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `vpc:vpc-1234`                 | This would return everything in `vpc-1234` and be the same as the default VPC created by Hava. |
| `vpc:vpc-1234 or vpc:vpc-5678` | This would return both `vpc-1234` and `vpc-5678` using the or operator.                        |

### Locating VPC ID

If you don’t already know the VPC id, this can be found in several locations within Hava in the attribute panel.

**The most common way to find it is:**

1. Open up the VPC you want.
2. Click anywhere within the VPC container.
3. In the attribute panel under the VPC name, you will find the ID.

### Incorrect Syntax Errors

Hava requires the correct syntax if forgotten or edited, this will cause a syntax error. For example, when searching for a VPC it must include `vpc:` followed by the VPC id with no (space) in between

#### Space between vpc: and the VPC id

* Correct use: <mark style="color:green;">`vpc:vpc-1234`</mark>
* Incorrect use: <mark style="color:red;">`vpc: vpc-1234`</mark>
