Global search

Port's global search provides a quick way to find entities, actions, blueprints, and more across your software catalog.

Accessing the search

You can access the global search in several ways:

• Keyboard shortcut: Press Cmd + K (Mac) or Win + K (Windows).
• Click: Click on the search bar in the top right corner of your portal.

The search opens an interface in the center of the page, displaying relevant results as you type.

Search results

The search displays the most relevant results in four categories:

• Entities: Entities whose properties (including title & identifier) match your search query. You can search for entities by their title, identifier, description, or any other property.
• Tech docs: Entities that have a markdown property whose content contains your search query.
• Actions: Actions whose title or identifier match your search query.
• Blueprints: Blueprints whose title or identifier match your search query.
