🔍Search
Find columns, tables and dashboards in your data environment.
Quick Search
At any point of working in Alvin you can access the Quick Search bar without exiting the current page. Hit the button on top of the main menu or use ⌘ Command/Ctrl + K.
You can look up your data assets by their name, description or tags using free text.
By default the selected result will open in the same tab. If you don't want to exit it yet, right-click it to open it in a new one.
You will be directed to the Entity View page. Check out this page to learn what you will find.
