Global search looks through all your projects at once. It is available from the magnifying glass icon, at the top of the interface, whatever page you are on.
Opening search
- 1Click the 🔍 icon at the top of the interface.
- 2Enter one or more keywords in the search field.
- 3Results appear instantly, with their total number at the top of the window.
Filtering results by type
A row of tabs lets you restrict results to a single type of content. Two circular arrows, on each side, scroll through the tabs if they don't all fit on screen:
- Tasks — tasks containing the search term, across all your projects.
- Projects — projects whose name or content matches the search.
- Lists — the matching lists (Kanban board columns).
- Attachments — attached files whose name matches the search term.
- Comments — discussion messages containing the search term.
Reading the results
Each result shows its project (with its coloured dot), the date it was last modified and an excerpt of the content with the search term highlighted.
Good to know: the icon on the left of each result shows its type (a checkbox for a task, a bubble for a discussion message) — a quick cue before you even read the text.
Frequently asked questions
Does search cover only my projects, or the whole organisation's?

Can I search for several keywords at once?

How do I close the search window?
