Saved, pinned and search

Chat gives you three ways to get back to a message: save it for yourself, pin it for everyone in the conversation, or search for it.

  1. Hover a message and click Save for later (the bookmark).
  2. Click Saved at the top of the navigator to see everything you saved, newest first.

Only you can see your saved messages. Click a saved message to open it in its conversation. To remove it, hover it and click the bookmark again (Remove from saved).

Hover a message and click Pin. Pinned messages are marked “Pinned” and counted on a pin button in the conversation’s header.

  1. Click the pin button in the header.
  2. Pick a message in the list to jump to it.

Pins are shared: everyone in the conversation sees them. Click Unpin on a pinned message to remove it.

  1. Type in the Search field in the navigator. Chat switches to Browser with your words.
  2. Choose Messages, Files or Contacts.

Search matches whole words in every conversation you can read. Click a result to open its conversation with the message highlighted. The search button in a conversation’s header leads to the same place.

Under Browser › Files you can narrow the list by:

  1. Who shared it (you by default; pick other people or several).
  2. File type: Images, Audio, Videos or PDFs.

You can also pick Spaces (channels and direct messages) and a time range such as Last 7 days, and sort by newest, oldest, name or size.
