How do I search across FabricLoop?

Open Search and type what you remember. One query searches across messages, tasks, notes, news, people, and files — you don't have to guess which surface it's on.

Search

1. Open Search. In the app, tap the magnifying glass in the toolbar. On the web, open Search in the navigation (or go to /search).
2. Type a query in Search everything. Results start updating as you type; press return or the send control to run it immediately.
3. Browse the grouped results, or tap a type chip (All, Task, Message, Note, News, Person, and others) to focus.
4. Tap a result to open it — a message in its conversation, a task, a note, a news story, a person, or a file.

When you haven't typed anything yet, you'll see Recent searches and, when the workspace has them, Saved searches. Pick one to run it again. Use Pin search to keep a query.

What shows up

Typical result types:

• Messages — chat in channels and DMs
• Tasks — titles and task content
• Notes — documents
• News — announcements
• People — teammates
• Files — attachments, including text extracted from supported files
• Comments, Calls, and Channels — when those chips are shown

Narrow further with Filters when that control is available.

Tips

• If nothing matches, try a different keyword. When FabricLoop has a spelling suggestion, tap Did you mean.
• On the free plan, older messages may fall outside the 90-day history window and won't appear.
• After results load, an AI summary can appear above the list so you don't have to open every result.
