Quick Open lets you jump to a document, daily note, space, or view by typing its name, all from your keyboard. Craft has three ways to find things. Quick Open opens items by name across all your spaces, Search finds content inside the documents of the current space, and Find in Page searches the open document. To compare them, see Search and Quick Open.

​
What is Quick Open?

Use Quick Open to:
  • Open any document or folder in any of your spaces by name
  • Switch to another space
  • Jump to views like Starred, Shared with Me, Tasks, and Calendar
  • Open a daily note by typing today, tomorrow, yesterday, or a date
Quick Open’s main focus is to help you get to documents, spaces, views, and daily notes. To find every place a word appears in your space, use Search instead.

​
How to Open It

Press Cmd + O
You’ll see a floating search bar that lets you begin typing immediately.

​
How It Works

Once Quick Open is active:
1
Start typing the name of a document, folder, space, or view.
2
Craft lists matching documents, folders, spaces, and views from all your spaces. On macOS and iOS, it also lists matching pages and blocks from the current space.
3
Use the arrow keys to scroll through the list.
4
Press Enter to open the selected item.
On Windows and Web, a See more results button appears at the bottom of the Quick Open panel when you search from the browse screen. Clicking it closes Quick Open and runs a full Search in the current space with what you typed.

​
Limitations

Shared documents that you haven’t yet opened may appear with limited preview information.

​
Troubleshooting

If you’re not seeing expected results:
  • Make sure your Craft app is up to date
  • Try searching for the document’s title rather than words from its content

Search in Craft

Find content across the documents in your space

Find in Document

Search within a specific document
