Global Search

Find anything in the CRM with one keyboard shortcut — companies, people, deals, tickets, and more.

Opening the Search Palette

The global search palette is the fastest way to find anything in the CRM.

Open the search palette using any of these methods:

  • Keyboard shortcut: Cmd+K on Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows/Linux
  • Dynamic Island: Click the search pill in the top-right floating bar
  • Mobile: Tap the blue search button floating above the bottom navigation

What You Can Search

The palette searches across all entity types in your CRM, ranked by relevance.

Companies
People
Opportunities
Tickets
KB Articles
Products
Quotes
Invoices
Projects
Tasks
Activities
Campaigns
Surveys
Workflows
AI Agents
Emails
Messages
Files
Drive Files
Saved Views

Results are ranked by relevance using trigram similarity, with boosts for exact matches, recently viewed items, and items related to the page you are currently viewing.

The search respects your role permissions. You will only see entities you have permission to view. For example, a Sales Rep with "own" scope will only see their assigned deals.

Smart Prefixes

Use prefix commands to filter and narrow your search.

PrefixExampleDescription
in:in:tickets acmeSearch only tickets. Aliases: in:opp, in:deal, in:kb
tag:tag:VIPFilter by tag name across all entities
owner:owner:meFilter by assigned owner
status:status:openFilter by status field
##1234Find ticket by number
Q-Q-1042Find quote by number
INV-INV-5001Find invoice by number
You can combine prefixes: in:tickets owner:me status:open expired tokensearches for open tickets assigned to you containing "expired token".

Recently Viewed & Pinned Items

Access your most-used items without typing anything.

When you open the palette without typing, you see:

  • Pinned items — up to 10 items you have pinned for quick access
  • Recently viewed — the last 10 entities you visited
  • Your open work — open tickets, upcoming deals, and overdue tasks assigned to you
  • Commands — create, navigate, and toggle shortcuts

To pin an item, hover over a search result and click the pin icon. Pinned items appear at the top of the empty state and can be reordered by dragging.

Permission-Based Visibility

Search results respect your role's permissions.

The search palette only shows entities your role has permission to view:

  • All scope — see all records in the organization
  • Team scope — see records assigned to you or your teammates
  • Own scope — see only records assigned to you
  • None — the entity type is hidden from search

Commands (like "Create Company") are also filtered — if you lack the createpermission, the command is hidden from the palette.
