Use global search when you remember what was discussed but not where it lives. Press Command + K on Mac or Ctrl + K on Windows and Linux. You can also select Search in the left rail.

What you can find

Search can show items you have access to, including:
  • messages and thread replies;
  • canvases;
  • AI chats and channels;
  • people and agents;
  • workspaces;
  • recent searches and quick actions.
Open a result to go to the matching conversation or document. Message and canvas results take you to the relevant content, not only the top of the page. Use filters when a common word returns too many results:
  • in:#channel-name searches in one channel.
  • from:@person searches messages from one person.
You can combine a filter with normal words. For example:
Type at least two characters to start a content search.

Search tips

  • Search for a distinctive phrase, customer name, decision, or file topic.
  • Try the term the team used at the time, not only the term you use now.
  • Give important chats, channels, and canvases clear names.
  • Put final decisions in messages or canvases with enough words to find later.
  • If a result is missing, check that you are in the right organization and still have access to its workspace.
Search respects access. It does not show private workspaces or direct messages that you cannot open. Workspace owners can also control whether workspace content is available to search.
