Global Quick Search

Global Quick Search is a keyboard-driven launcher that finds pages, settings, dashboards, and in-page features from anywhere in DocBits. It replaces clicking through the sidebar when you already know what you want.
Press Cmd + K on macOS or Ctrl + K on Windows and Linux. The shortcut works from any screen.

Start typing to filter the catalog of pages and in-page features. Quick Search uses fuzzy matching, so partial words and minor typos still find the right entry. The top eight results are shown ordered by relevance.
Each result shows:
The feature or page label.
The category it belongs to (Settings, Dashboard, Validation, and so on).
A small badge indicating the entry type — Page, Dialog, Sidebar, Panel, Menu, or Action.
Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight a result, then press Enter to open it. Press Esc to close the modal.
Only entries you have permission to use appear in the result list. Admin-only entries are hidden from non-admin users.
When the search input is empty, Quick Search displays your five most recent queries so you can return to common destinations with one keystroke. Recent searches are stored per browser and do not sync across devices.
Some destinations need extra information — for example, "Open document by ID" needs the document ID before it can navigate. When you pick such an entry, Quick Search switches to picker mode:
For document IDs, type or paste the ID and press Enter.
For document types, choose the type from the inline list.
Picker mode honours the dashboard's status permissions, so you only see documents you are allowed to open.
If the eight visible results aren't enough, click the View all results link in the footer to open the Sitemap pre-filtered with your current search.
