Tags & search

Two ways to find things in an account that has grown large, both working across all features:

  • tags group resources that belong together, and
  • the global search finds anything by name, from any page.

Tags​

There is no "create tag" button

Tags come from note fields. Almost every resource has a free-form note: domains, services, databases, app servers, containers and stacks, DNS records, domain accounts, email rules, OIDC applications, and shares. Every #hashtag you type there becomes a tag.

Write #client-acme relaunch scheduled for May in the note of a database and in the note of a website, and both appear under #client-acme.

The Tags page lists your tags with an item count each. Select a tag to see everything that carries it: all the parts of one project at once, across databases, sites, and mailboxes.

Since tags live in notes, you manage a tag by editing a note:

  • Remove the hashtag and the resource loses that tag.
  • When nothing carries a tag, it disappears.
  • Tags ignore capital letters: #Work and #work are the same tag.

Press Ctrl+K anywhere in the panel (Cmd+K on a Mac), or / when you're not typing in a field. Results arrive as you type and cover three kinds of thing:

KindMatched on
Your resourcesNames, notes, and tags. Type a tag, with or without the #, to find everything that carries it.
Panel pagesName or purpose, so the search is also a way to navigate: "certif" goes straight to Certificates.
Runtimes and toolsName or version.
Narrowing a search
  • More words narrow the match.
  • Quotation marks match a phrase exactly.
  • A - before a word excludes it.
  • The last word matches as a prefix, so results appear before you finish typing.
