# The search

# The search

Search indexing is instantaneous! For example, if you create a task, it is directly accessible via the search tool. The same goes for searching through meetings, paragraphs, decisions or even files. In the search results, WEDO shows you the number of hits found.

💡 To refine your search, you can specify your search terms. The results will appear according to the selected option. 3 options are possible:

*   The search result contains all the terms entered
    
*   The search result contains at least one of the terms entered
    
*   The search result contains the exact terms

You can sort the search results by relevance, by status, by planned date or by due date.

## Search through files

If the file is linked to a workspace, you will find under it the names of the team and the workspace containing the file (here: _Management_ > _Management Committee_). If nothing is mentioned, the file has been attached to a meeting or task. You can click on the file to see the source to which the file is linked (here: file is attached to the task _Edit Apprenticeship Rules_).

The search is also done through the content of the files.
