--- title: "Global search" url: "https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/reference/global-search/" description: "Jump to any AxoConsole page, pipeline object, or integration, or start creating a new object, from a single search field." last_modified: "2026-10-26T13:26:52+01:00" --- > For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/llms.txt). # Global search Jump to any AxoConsole page, pipeline object, or integration, or start creating a new object, from a single search field. Global search is the quickest way to move around in [AxoConsole](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/architecture/index.md#console). Type a few characters, then select a result to open it. ## Open global search To open global search, do one of the following: - Select the search field in the page header of AxoConsole. - Press `Ctrl + K` (Windows and Linux) or `⌘ + K` (macOS). ## How results are matched - Global search uses fuzzy matching on the title of the item. For objects, the title is the name of the object. If an object has no name, the title is its ID. - Results are grouped by type. Each result shows the description of the object under its title. - AxoConsole refreshes the list of objects each time you open global search, so objects you created recently are included. ## What you can find Selecting a result opens the item. For most objects, this is the overview or details page of the object. ### Pages The **Pages** group contains the main pages of AxoConsole: **Dashboard**, **Integrations**, **Analytics**, **Search Logs**, **Flows**, **Custom Steps**, **Topology**, **Sources**, **Collection Rules**, **Forwarding Rules**, **Routers**, **Connector Rules**, **Stores**, **Destinations**, **Provisioning**, **Rehydration**, **Alerting**, **Activity Logs**, **Roles**, **Axoflow** (version details and third-party licenses), and **Usage Metrics**. Individual rehydration jobs don’t appear in the results. To find a job, open the **Rehydration** page. For details, see [Rehydrate data](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/rehydration/index.md). ### Objects The objects of your pipeline are grouped by type. The group titles are the following: - **Sources**: [Source](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/index.md) appliances. Opens the overview page of the source. See [Sources](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/index.md). - **Clusters**: Kubernetes clusters. Opens the overview page of the cluster. - **Edges**: [Edge hosts](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/collection-rules/index.md). Opens the overview page of the host. See [Hosts](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/onboard-hosts/hosts/index.md). - **Routers**: [AxoRouter](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/architecture/index.md#router) hosts. Opens the overview page of the router. See [AxoRouter](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/provisioning/axorouter/index.md). - **Destinations**: [Destinations](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/destinations/index.md) that receive data from your pipeline. Opens the overview page of the destination. See [Destinations](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/destinations/index.md). - **Flows**: [Flows](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/flow-overview/index.md) that route and process data. Opens the overview page of the flow. See [Manage flows](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/flows/index.md). - **Collection rules**: [Data collection rules](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/collection-rules/index.md) of Axoflow agent hosts. Opens the **Collection rules** list, filtered to the selected rule. See [Edge collection rules](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/collection-rules/index.md). - **Connector rules**: [Connector rules](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/connector-rules/index.md) of AxoRouter hosts. Opens the **Connector rules** list, filtered to the selected rule. See [AxoRouter connector rules](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/connector-rules/index.md). - **Forwarding rules**: [Rules that forward data](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/data-forwarding/index.md) from edge hosts to routers. Opens the overview page of the rule. See [Data forwarding from edge hosts](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-sources/data-forwarding/index.md). - **Store**: [AxoStore](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/storage/index.md) and [AxoLake](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/architecture/index.md#axolake) stores. Opens the overview page of the store. See [Storage](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/storage/index.md). - **Provisioning**: Active deploy commands. Opens the **Provisioning** page for the selected deploy command. See [Provision pipeline elements](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/provisioning/index.md). - **Custom steps**: Custom processing steps that group processing steps into a reusable step. Opens the overview page of the step. See [Processing steps](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/data-management/processing/index.md). - If detection is enabled for your organization, the **Rules** (Sigma detection rules), **Policies** (detection policies), and **Finding Flows** groups are also available. ### Create actions Every object group also contains a **Create** action, for example, **Create source**, **Create router**, **Create flow**, or **Create destination**. Select the action to open the dialog or page that creates that type of object. For edges, routers, and clusters, the action opens the **Provisioning** page, where you can generate an install command. To start creating any object, open global search and type `create`. ### Integrations The **Integrations** group contains the products of the integrations catalog. You can search for the name of the vendor or the product. A product has a separate result for each capability it supports: **Source**, **Connector rule**, **Collection rule**, and **Destination**. Select a result to open the details of the integration on the **Integrations** page. See [Integrations](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/integrations/index.md). ## Global search and other search features AxoConsole has three different search features: - **Global search** finds and opens pages, objects, and integrations. It doesn’t search your log data. - **The filter bar** filters the list on the current page, for example, the hosts on the **Routers** page. For the query syntax, see [AQL operator reference](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/reference/aql/index.md). - **Log search** queries the data stored in your stores. See [Search](https://axoflow.com/docs/axoflow/storage/search/index.md).
