What search looks at#

KindLooks at
ProjectsTitle, description, type, status, assignee, labels, client and collaborators, custom fields and subtasks.
IdeasTitle, notes, stage, tags and steps.
FilesTitle, link, category, tags, notes and the storage service.

Each result tells you what it is, for example “Project · In progress · due Oct 24”, “Idea · exploring” or “File · Creative”. IdeaLine shows up to 15 results. If nothing matches, it says “No matches. Try fewer or different keywords.”

Good to know

Search looks only inside your own workspace.

Tip

To narrow a calendar or board instead of jumping to one item, use the Smart filter. See Filter the calendar, board and repository.
