# Search
Plugins can define and register their own models to extend NetBox's core search functionality. Typically, a plugin will include a file named `search.py`, which holds all search indexes for its models (see the example below).
```python
# search.py
from netbox.search import SearchMixin
from .filters import MyModelFilterSet
from .tables import MyModelTable
from .models import MyModel
class MyModelIndex(SearchMixin):
model = MyModel
queryset = MyModel.objects.all()
filterset = MyModelFilterSet
table = MyModelTable
url = 'plugins:myplugin:mymodel_list'
```
To register one or more indexes with NetBox, define a list named `indexes` at the end of this file:
```python
indexes = [MyModelIndex]
```
!!! tip
The path to the list of search indexes can be modified by setting `search_indexes` in the PluginConfig instance.
