Pagination

Search results are paginated for large result sets. Use the page navigation at the bottom of the results to browse through all matches.

Search Operators

You can narrow a query inline using the following operators: Operators can be combined — for example, onboarding in:google type:docx after:2025-09-01. Date operators are interpreted in your saved timezone from SettingsProfile. If you have not saved a timezone, Omni falls back to UTC. Connectors can also add source-specific operators when they register with Omni. Examples include channel: for Slack, folder: or subject: for IMAP, project: / status: / assignee: for Jira and GitHub-style sources, and tag: / correspondent: for document-management connectors. These operators are available in both Search and Chat once the relevant connector is running.

Filters

Filters in the search UI (source, type, author, date range) apply the same operators as above and are available from both Search and Chat modes. The search index uses ASCII folding and language-agnostic tokenization, so queries against documents in French, German, Spanish, and other non-English languages work without any extra configuration.

Tips

  • Be specific: “Engineering onboarding checklist” works better than “onboarding”
  • Ask naturally: The AI understands conversational questions
  • Use operators: Combine in:, type:, and after: to narrow results quickly
  • Use recent chats: Continue previous conversations from the sidebar
  • Recency matters: More recent documents are given a ranking boost, so up-to-date content surfaces first
