Find memos with search

Press Cmd+K (Ctrl+K on Windows), or click Search in the sidebar, and start typing. It finds memos, collections, notebooks and files you can open, and the same box jumps to pages and runs commands, so you can get anywhere without touching the sidebar. The point of keeping knowledge in Fieldwerk is that you, your team and your AI assistant can all find it again; this is how you do it.

Search for something

1. Press Cmd+K.

2. Type a few words. Memos match on their title; collections, notebooks and files match on their name. Before you type, the box shows your recent memos.

3. Use the arrow keys to pick a result and press Enter to open it.

Search only shows things you have access to. Archived memos still appear, shown dimmed, so nothing you've archived is lost.

To search inside memos, use the search box at the top of My memos. It searches the full text of the memos you own, titles first, and includes archived ones.

Run a command

The same box runs commands. Type the name or pick from the list:

• New memo and New collection

• Personal settings and Workspace settings

• My memos, All collections, Shared with me and Trash

• Connections, for the AI assistants connected to your account

• Switch to another workspace you belong to

Browse instead

• My memos lists memos you created, with archived ones under Archived at the bottom.

• Shared with me lists memos other people have shared with you directly, including from workspaces you're a guest in.

• All collections lists every collection you can open in the workspace.

Have your AI assistant do it

A connected assistant (see Connect Claude to Fieldwerk or Connect ChatGPT to Fieldwerk) searches the same memos you can read, and can go further by searching properties across a whole workspace:

In Fieldwerk, find my memos about our contract renewal and tell me where things stand.

In Fieldwerk, find everything across my workspace that's assigned to me with a review due this week.

Or start each day with a check-in:

In Fieldwerk, what's waiting on me, and what changed in my workspace since yesterday?
