# Search Assets

The method allows users to query and retrieve information about specific NFT assets based on certain criteria (custom-query). This query provides filters such as asset name, owner address, collection ID, or other relevant attributes to narrow down your search. Using this method, users can programmatically explore the Metaplex ecosystem, retrieve information about specific NFT assets, and perform various operations related to those assets, such as transferring ownership or displaying asset metadata.
