# Command Palette

The command palette is a keyboard-driven search box that lets you jump anywhere in Allegro, run quick actions, switch between sites, and find records across your organization — without reaching for the mouse or paging through lists.

## Opening the palette[​](#opening-the-palette "Direct link to Opening the palette")

Press **⌘K** on macOS or **Ctrl+K** on Windows and Linux from anywhere in the dashboard. Press the shortcut again (or `Esc`) to close it.

Start typing in the **Search or jump to…** box and the list filters as you type. Use the arrow keys to move through the results and `Enter` to open the highlighted one. If nothing matches, the palette shows **No results for "{your text}"**.

## What you can do[​](#what-you-can-do "Direct link to What you can do")

Results are grouped so the most direct matches rise to the top. Depending on what you type, you'll see some or all of these groups:

| Group            | What it contains                                                                                |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Audience**     | Audience members matched by your search (see [Searching records](#searching-records)).          |
| **Interactions** | Interactions matched by your search.                                                            |
| **Templates**    | Templates matched by your search.                                                               |
| **Forms**        | Forms matched by your search.                                                                   |
| **Actions**      | Quick actions you can run from wherever you are.                                                |
| **Go to**        | Every page in the sidebar and in Settings, so you can navigate straight to it.                  |
| **Switch**       | The other sites you can access — pick one to switch your current site without leaving the page. |

Only results you have permission to open are shown, so the palette never links you to a page or record you can't view.

## Searching records[​](#searching-records "Direct link to Searching records")

The palette searches your organization's **audience members**, **interactions**, **templates**, and **forms** live as you type. How it matches depends on what you enter:

| What you type           | What it finds                                                                                 |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Two or more letters     | Interactions, templates, and forms whose **title or slug** contains your text.                |
| Text containing `@`     | Audience members whose **email** starts with what you typed (for example `jane@example.com`). |
| A full record ID (UUID) | The exact audience member, interaction, template, or form with that ID.                       |

Each match shows the record's name — and, for audience members, their email as a subtitle — so you can tell similarly named records apart. Selecting a match opens that record.

note

Email search matches from the **start** of the address, so type the beginning of the address (`jane@…`) rather than a word from the middle of it. For a broader member search by name or partial email, use the search bar on the [Audience](/product/audience.md#searching-members) page.
