Before you start
- You need to be signed in on a page that shows the top bar. Public links and embedded pages do not have Search.
- Results depend on your role, the selected company, and your connected integrations. Your MSP manages company access.
- Deep Search notes are for MSP staff only.
Find a page or record
1
Open Search
Click Search in the top bar. Or press Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux, or Option+K on Mac, while your cursor is not in a text field.
2
Type a specific term
Type a page name such as User Settings, or a record title or number. Results load as you type. If the whole phrase finds nothing, try a shorter, distinctive word. Ticket search needs at least 3 characters.
3
Check the category and destination
Results are grouped by category. Read each title and subtitle so you pick the right page or record.
4
Open the result
Click the result, or use the Up and Down arrow keys and press Enter. To keep your current page open, open the result in a new tab from your browser’s right-click menu.
5
Close Search without opening anything
Press Esc. Opening and closing Search does not save anything on the page underneath. Finish or cancel any open edit before you open a result.

What Search can find
Depending on your access and integrations, results can include these categories.
Search normally returns up to five matches per category. The count shows what was returned, not how many records exist. A company selection narrows record searches but does not remove navigation links. A result does not grant extra access, because the page you open can still require permission.
Documentation results are records in your portal’s Documentation area. For product how-to instructions, use the page’s Help entry or ask the Home assistant.
