Find a project
Open the dashboard and use Search projects. Combine a search with Status and Tag filters. Use Clear filters to return to the full list. Previous and Next move between result pages; the displayed count describes the projects shown on the current page.
The sidebar’s search helps find a project without leaving the current screen. Its project order is organised within status groups.
Search workspace content
Press ⌘ K or choose Search workspace. Search projects, document text, scratchpad notes, cards, links and their notes, file and folder names, attachment names, and secret metadata. Secret values and uploaded file contents are excluded.
Use the arrow keys to select a result and Enter to open it. Results can lead directly to a card, document, or other item. Add more specific words or use the filters below when there are too many matches.
Inside a project, use the search field beside its section tabs to search that project’s content. This differs from Search cards in Tasks, which filters the board, and the filename search in Assets.
Filter syntax
Add a type: or project: filter to your query. Quote project names containing spaces:
type:task login
project:"Client website" deployment
type:document project:"Client website" setup
Available types are project, document, task, link, secret, scratchpad, asset, folder, and attachment. Use one filter of each kind. Project filtering matches project names; the remaining words search the selected content. Results show up to ten matches per type, so narrow the query when more are available.
When search is empty, recent destinations help you resume work. Clear recent items removes that navigation history without deleting the project content.
Run a workspace command
Workspace search also includes commands such as New project, Go to dashboard, Settings, Connections, and Tools & runtimes. Appearance commands can switch to Light, Dark, or System theme, reduce motion, or mute and unmute interface sounds.
Keyboard reference
These shortcuts refer to the macOS desktop app. ⌘ means Command, ⇧ means Shift, and ⌥ means Option (also called Alt). Focus a control with Tab; use Shift + Tab to move back.

For cards, use the context menu’s Move card up, Move card down, or Move to list. List menus have Move list left and Move list right, so board organisation does not require dragging.
