# Search meetings

Use meeting search when you know part of a meeting title, a topic from its
generated summary, or the name or email address of someone who attended, but do
not want to browse the dated history on Home.

## Open meeting search

Open search in either of these ways:

- Select **Search** at the top of the left sidebar.
- Press **Command-K** on macOS from anywhere in the main Heizen Meets window.

The search dialog can be opened from Home, Projects, Settings, or a meeting
page. Close it with the close action or press **Escape**.

## Search meeting records

1. **Enter at least two characters**

   Type part of a meeting title, generated summary, participant name, or
   participant email address. Heizen waits until the query contains at least
   two characters before searching.
2. **Review the matches**

   Each result shows the meeting title. It can also show the associated project
   and the participant who matched your search.
3. **Open the meeting**

   Select a result to close search and open that meeting's summary, notes,
   transcript, metadata, and AI assistant.

Search returns up to 20 matching meetings at a time. It searches meeting titles,
generated summaries, and participant names and email addresses. It does not
search the full transcript or personal notes.

## Understand search messages

| Message                                      | Meaning                                              | What to do                                  |
| -------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Type at least 2 characters to search.**    | The query is too short.                              | Add another character.                      |
| **No meetings found for “…”**                | No title, summary, or participant matched the query. | Check the spelling or try a shorter phrase. |
| **Search is unavailable. Please try again.** | Heizen could not complete the request.               | Check your connection and retry.            |

If you want to browse meetings by their Heizen Studio project instead, use
[Project meetings](/meets/project-meetings).
