Search & saved views

Global command palette for navigating tracks, albums, teams, and settings, with deep Postgres lexical search (Pro+) and per-page saved filter presets.

What it is

The search command (⌘ K on Mac, Ctrl K on Windows/Linux) is your keyboard-first way to jump anywhere in Aden, to a track, an album, a playlist, a team, a tour, or any settings page, without reaching for the sidebar or typing a URL.

It also understands plain English. Type "change my email" or "set up notifications" and it routes you directly to the right settings page using AI to understand what you mean.

Deep search is available as a fallback when the quick results don't include what you need. It searches inside track descriptions, lyrics, version names, milestones, todos, financial records, tour names, event details, and more. All using the Postgres full-text and trigram indexes. Deep search is a Pro feature; the palette itself, its instant results and the plain-English routing work on every plan.

Saved views let you bookmark a set of filters on any list page (tracks, posts, milestones, …) and recall them in one click. You can save a view just for yourself or share it with your whole team.

Using it

Opening and searching

  • Press ⌘ K (Mac) or Ctrl K (Windows/Linux) from anywhere in the app to open the command palette.
  • Start typing: results update instantly from your tracks, albums, playlists, teams, tours, and events.
  • Use the filter pills under the search box (All, This Track / This Album / This Playlist when you are on that page, Actions, Settings, Teams, Organisations) to narrow the list. Press or ⇧→ to cycle filters without leaving the keyboard.
  • Use arrow keys to move through results and Enter to open.

Finding a settings page by description

Type what you want to do ("change my password", "invite a team member", "set up Spotify"). If a settings page matches, you are taken there directly or shown it as the top suggestion.

Looking up your own information

Some searches aren't about going somewhere. They're about a value you need to paste into a form somewhere else. Type the name of the field ("IPI number", "PRO", "team VAT number", "public profile link") and the palette shows the value itself at the top of the results, with a copy button. It reads your own account and the team you're in. Nothing else.

If a field is empty, the row says so and takes you to the page where you set it. Sensitive fields (tax ID, social security number) never show their value in the palette; the row confirms the field exists and opens the page that shows it.

Deep search (Pro)

If the quick results don't show what you need, select Deep search (or keep typing to filter) at the bottom of the palette. Deep search scans track text, lyrics, version names, milestones, todos, documents, finance entries, tour and event details: anything that has been indexed across your workspace.

On Free and Air the bottom row shows a Pro badge instead of running the search. Selecting it opens your team's plan page, where upgrading turns the same row into a live deep search. Everything else in the palette. Jumping to a track, album, playlist, team or settings page, and the plain-English routing works on every plan.

Saving a view

On any filtered list page that shows a Save view button:

  1. Apply the filters you want (status, date range, assignee, …).
  2. Click Save view and give it a name.
  3. Optionally mark it as your default so those filters load automatically.
  4. Optionally share it with your team so every team member sees the same preset in their view picker.

To delete or change the default, open the view picker and use the options next to the saved view's name.
