Magic Search
Changed onPerform a full-text search across your workspace's content. Returns matching highlights, data (notes), insights, channels, tags, and themes in a single response.
Use the query field for keyword search, or provide structured filter objects to narrow results by specific entity types and their attributes. To include a content type with no filter constraints, pass an empty array for that type (e.g. "notes": []). Types omitted from the filter are excluded from results. The notes key in the filter and response corresponds to the "data" resource in the Dovetail product.
Results are paginated using offset and limit (default 50, max 250). Each content type is returned in its own array within the response.
📘 Prefer Search V2
For more advanced filtering including location-based search, contributor filters, and additional content types (projects, folders, people, dashboards, agents), use the Search V2 (POST /v2/search) endpoint.
