# Global Search

> Find bookings, people, experiences, and notes instantly from anywhere in Helm

Global search lets you find anything in your workspace without navigating through menus. Whether you're looking for a specific booking, a customer's name, or a past note, search puts your entire workspace at your fingertips.

## Opening search

Press **Cmd+K** on Mac or **Ctrl+K** on Windows from any screen to open the search menu. You can also click the search icon in the top navigation bar.

## How search works

Start typing and results appear instantly, grouped into categories:

* **Bookings** — Matching runs and events by customer name, booking reference, or experience
* **People** — Passengers, guides, and contacts matching your search
* **Experiences** — Tour offerings that match your query

Notes aren't shown as a separate category — instead, matching notes surface as context on their parent booking or run.

### Navigating results

Use **arrow keys** to move through results and **Enter** to open the selected item. Press **Esc** to close search and return to where you were.

Each category shows a preview of matching results. Click **View all** on any category to expand it and see the full list of matches.

When you select a booking or run from search results, your calendar automatically navigates to that event's date so you can see it in context.

## Date filters

Narrow your results by time period using the date filter at the top of the search menu:

* **All dates** — Search across everything
* **Upcoming** — Only future bookings and events
* **Past 30 days** — Recent history
* **Past 90 days** — Extended history
* **This month** — Current calendar month
* **This year** — Current calendar year

Date filters are especially useful when you remember roughly when something happened but not the exact details.

## Recent searches

Search keeps a history of your recent searches so you can quickly re-run common queries. Your recent searches appear when you open the search menu before typing anything. Click any recent search to run it again, or click **Clear** to remove your search history.
