When to Use Each
| Use Chat Mode | Use Search Mode |
|---|---|
| ”What were the key decisions from the product meeting?" | "Q3 sales report" |
| "Summarize our refund policy" | "employee handbook" |
| "How do I set up SSO?" | "SSO configuration doc” |
Filters and Operators
Both modes accept the same search operators —in:, type:, from:, before:, after: — and filter panel (source, content type, author, date range). In chat mode, you can also ask the assistant to apply filters in natural language (e.g. “find recent engineering docs in Confluence”), and it will translate them into tool-level filters on your behalf.
