Search
Find datasets, projects, and files across the team from one box.
Search spans the whole team: the data catalogue, projects, and files. Open it with the search box in the sidebar, or press ⌘K (CtrlK on Windows and Linux).
Result groups
Results are grouped by what they are, with a count per group.
| Group | Contains |
|---|---|
| Data catalogue | Sources, datasets, mappings |
| Projects | Projects you can access |
| Files | Charts, dashboards, uploads, maps |
Each result shows its parent above its name — the team or project it belongs to — so two
datasets called Customers stay tellable apart.
Filters
Toggles above the results turn each group on or off. The state persists for your session, so if you mostly search for datasets you can leave Projects and Files off.
Sort offers:
| Sort | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Relevance | Name matches first, then description and field names |
| Recently updated | Newest activity first |
| Name | Alphabetical |
What is searched
| Object | Matched on |
|---|---|
| Dataset | Name, description, field names, source name |
| Source | Name, connector type, host |
| Mapping | Logical field name, member field names |
| Project | Name, description |
| File | Name, chart title, dataset it reads |
Field names are indexed
Searching billing_email finds every dataset with that column, even when no dataset is named
anything like it. This is the fastest way to answer “where does this field come from?”
Keyboard

Search respects permissions
You only see what you already have access to. A dataset in a project you are not a member of will not appear — which is also why a colleague’s search results may differ from yours.
