The problem
Why it matters
You know the file exists and you know roughly what it is called, but you do not know which folder someone put it in. Clicking through folders one at a time wastes minutes that add up across a team. Search takes you straight to it.
How it works
Step by step
- 1
Start typing
Use the search box at the top of your file list and enter any part of the name.
- 2
See matches from the whole workspace
Search looks across all folders in your current workspace rather than just the one you have open.
- 3
Act on the result
Download, rename, star, share or move the file to Trash directly from the results.
What's covered
Everything search includes
- Searches every folder in the workspace
- Matches part of a filename
- Results update as you search
- Actions available directly from results
- Limited to your current workspace
- Files in Trash stay out of normal results
Where it helps
Typical uses
- Finding a contract by customer name
- Locating the latest price list
- Pulling up an invoice by its number
- Checking whether a file has already been uploaded
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Does search look inside PDFs and Word documents?
No. It matches names only, which is why a simple naming convention is worth agreeing as a team.
Will search show files from my other workspaces?
No. Search stays inside the workspace you currently have open. Switch workspace to search there.
Are capital letters important?
No. You can type a name in whichever case is quickest.
