# Searching Across All Project Data

### Overview

Cross-Project search supports discovery and governance reviews.

Console can surface related items when the location is unknown.

### Key Concepts

* **Cross-Project query**: query that spans more than one Project
* **Result scope**: Organization and Project boundaries applied to results
* **Source links**: traceable links to the underlying items

### How It’s Used

Use cross-Project search for portfolio-style questions.

Use it to find repeated decisions and common blockers across delivery work.

### Benefits

* Faster discovery across Projects
* Better reuse of prior decisions and patterns
* Earlier visibility into cross-team delivery risk

### Setup Steps

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Confirm Organization access

Confirm access exists for the intended Organization and Projects.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Run a cross-Project query

Use a query such as:

* `blocked tasks across all projects`
* `requirements approved this month`
* `tests failing in acceptance testing`
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Validate sources and capture follow-ups

Open source links and capture follow-up tasks in the correct Project.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Best Practices

* Keep Process and System naming consistent across Projects.
* Use Segment Types for consistent reporting dimensions.
* Convert high-signal findings into tasks and Save Views.

### Summary

Cross-Project search is strongest when scope is consistent and sources are verified.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.transform.ai/ai/searching-across-all-project-data.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
