Find anything in your workspace
Search your documents, events, tasks, and notifications in one ask.
Beginner · ~5 min · Prerequisites: None
What you'll do
Ask the assistant to find information across your entire workspace — docs, calendar events, tasks, and inbox — and get a unified set of results you can open, filter, and follow up on.
The quick way: just ask
"Find everything about the Q3 launch."
The assistant searches your documents, knowledge base, calendar, tasks, and inbox simultaneously and returns the most relevant results. You don't need to open each section separately.
Steps
Ask the assistant to find a topic
Open Assistant in the sidebar and type what you're looking for. Be specific: "Find notes and docs about the onboarding redesign" returns sharper results than "find onboarding stuff".
Review the results across types
The assistant searches your docs, knowledge base, calendar events, tasks, and inbox in one pass. It presents results with enough context — a snippet, the item type, and when it was last updated — so you can tell at a glance which one you need.
Open a result
Click any result card to open the item directly. The assistant keeps the thread open so you can ask follow-up questions about what you found.
Narrow with a follow-up
If there are too many results, refine with a follow-up message: "just the documents", "only things from last week", or "filter to tasks I own". The assistant re-runs the search with your constraint applied.
For searches scoped to your team's indexed content — internal wikis, uploaded files, and synced docs — see Answers from your knowledge base. For a deeper dive on what the assistant can search and how it ranks results, see the Search reference.
