Sébastien Dubois released a free 13-page PDF cheat sheet covering 10 little-used Obsidian search operators: file:, path:, content:, tag:, line:, block:, section:, [property:value], task-todo: and match-case:.

It also includes a "search escalation ladder" ordering tools from cheapest to most powerful: title, exact phrase, filters, date/property, related note, and finally searching by idea only. The material condenses his free 12-part Complete Guide to Obsidian Search and also covers Quick Switcher, Bases, Obsidian CLI, ripgrep, fzf and qmd commands.
