# Search in Brev

Find any goal, project, metric, cadence, team, view, person or page with the search palette (Cmd K or Ctrl K).

Search opens a palette that jumps you to anything in Brev by name.

To search:

1. Press `⌘K` on a Mac or `Ctrl K` on Windows. Or click the magnifier beside your organization's name at the top of the sidebar.
2. Type part of a name.
3. Pick a result with the arrow keys and `Enter`, or click it.

## What search finds {#what-it-finds}

Results are grouped by kind. Each kind matches on these words:

- **Goals, projects and metrics**: Their name. The group headings use your organization's words for them.
- **Cadences**: The cadence name. A cadence opens on its live or next meeting.
- **Teams and views**: Their name.
- **Users**: Their name, email, or the name of a team they're on.
- **Pages and Settings**: The page's name, such as Actions or Meeting agent.

## How matching works {#matching}

- Every word you type must appear in the result. 'q4 revenue' finds 'Q4 Revenue Plan' but not 'Revenue'.
- Words can match anywhere, but results that start with your words rank first.
- Your own goals, teams and teammates rank higher.
- Search doesn't look inside notes, check-ins, transcripts or artifacts.
- With nothing typed, the palette shows your next meeting and recent items.

## Run an action {#actions}

The palette also runs actions, such as checking in on a goal. They show under Actions as you type. Type `>` first to list only the actions.
