@jeremystretch - I do not seem to be able to search interfaces via Label field from the UI. Have tried URL param queries as well. Am I missing it somewhere? https://netboxdemo.com/dcim/interfaces/?q=&label=te&sort=-label

The way your request is worded it sounded like you want the search functionality to match on the label field, which it does. Are you asking instead for a separate filter?
