title: Results and actions
description: What each kind of search result shows in its row and in the preview, and every action you can run on it.
---

This page lists every kind of result workspace search can show, in the order the groups appear, with the actions for each one. The first action in each list is the one that runs when you click the row or press **Enter**. To open the full list, see [Open a result or act on it](/guide/search/search-your-workspace#open-a-result-or-act-on-it).

Groups appear in this order: **Suggestions**, **Saved searches**, **Recent searches**, **Mail**, **Events**, **Files**, **Chats**, **Members**, **Contacts**, **Workflows**, **Workflow runs**, **Mailboxes**, **Calendars**, **Drives**, **Mail folders**, **Labels**, **Connections**, **Subscriptions**, **Commands**, **Settings** and **Workspaces**.

Actions whose name starts with **Filter by** or **Search** replace what is in the box with a new search, such as `from:` and the sender, and keep search open.

**Ask the assistant** opens **Workspace AI** with a new message that already holds the item as a chip. The message is not sent, so you can type your question first. You see this action only when AI is on for your instance, for the workspace and for the mailbox, calendar or drive the item is in. See [Use Workspace AI](/guide/assistant/use-workspace-ai).
