Basics
Search workspace
Click on the search button in the top left or type / to open the quick search menu and then type your query. Search looks for issues and documents across the full workspaces and matches the issue ID or terms in the title, description, or comments. You can search by ID exactly e.g. LIN-123 or shorthand e.g. lin123. The search term will be highlighted if it's in the title.
We sort search results in what we assume is the most relevant order, showing unstarted and in progress issues first, then backlog, completed, canceled, and archived issues.
To further refine your search, use operators like:
- AND to include both terms.
- -keyword to exclude a term.
- "keyword" to search for an exact term. Without quotes, searches may also include results for similar terms.
ProTip: Use filters to refine search results. Apply them after entering the search by clicking the search icon in the upper left using Cmd/Ctrl F to search a view (list, board, Inbox).
Search filters
Narrow your search by @-mentioning teams, users, status, and other properties. This will automatically create and apply a filter to your search. Apply additional filter options through the Filter menu.
Recent issues
When you open the search menu, you'll be shown recent searches as well as a list of recent issues for easy access. You can also find recent issues on the macOS desktop app by clicking the clock icon above the lefthand sidebar or launching it with O then I.
Search specific views
Type Cmd/Ctrl F to search for issues within the current view. The search bar will appear in the top right corner next to the Display Options button. You'll need to search by exact issue ID or words in the title. This search acts more like a temporary filter, so as you type, only matching issues remain on the board or list. Press Esc to clear the search and show all of your issues.
Quick search
The shortcut O then I will open a recent issues search where you can also search for issues by issue ID or title. This supports partial word search but will only search by title (not description or comments).
