# Use Command Search and Keyboard Shortcuts

> Use Z360 command search and keyboard shortcuts to move faster across pages, records, Ask Z, and common actions.

### **Overview**

Command search helps you move around Z360 without leaving your keyboard. Use it to open pages, create records, find business records, return to Ask Z threads, or ask Ask Z a new question.

### **Open Command Search**

Use **Command/Ctrl + K** or click **Search** in the sidebar.

The command menu can show:

* Quick actions
* Page navigation
* Settings pages
* AI Studio pages
* Ask Z threads
* Contacts
* Conversations
* Tickets
* Leads

### **Search Pages and Records**

1. Open command search.
2. Type what you need, such as `contacts`, `billing`, a customer name, a ticket title, or a lead.
3. Choose the result.

When you type a search term, Z360 can search across matching app records and navigation items. Some record results may take a moment to load.

### **Ask Z from Command Search**

Type a question or instruction, then use **Command/Ctrl + Enter** while the command search input is focused.

Z360 opens Ask Z with your prompt so you can continue the request in a chat.

### **Quick Actions**

Command search includes quick actions for common work:

| Action          | What it opens              |
| --------------- | -------------------------- |
| **New Contact** | Contact creation           |
| **New Message** | New Inbox conversation     |
| **New Ticket**  | Ticket creation from Inbox |
| **New Lead**    | Lead creation              |

### **Navigation Shortcuts**

Z360 also supports two-key navigation shortcuts.

| Shortcut     | Destination |
| ------------ | ----------- |
| `g` then `d` | Dashboard   |
| `g` then `i` | Inbox       |
| `g` then `c` | Contacts    |
| `g` then `t` | Tickets     |
| `g` then `l` | Leads       |
| `g` then `a` | AI Studio   |
| `g` then `s` | Settings    |

Some destinations only appear for users with the required permissions.

### **Create Shortcuts**

Use create shortcuts for common new-record workflows.

| Shortcut     | Action      |
| ------------ | ----------- |
| `c` then `c` | New Contact |
| `c` then `m` | New Message |
| `c` then `t` | New Ticket  |
| `c` then `l` | New Lead    |

### **Ask Z Shortcuts**

| Shortcut                     | Action                               |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **Command/Ctrl + Shift + A** | Start a new Ask Z chat from anywhere |
| **Command/Ctrl + Shift + H** | Open Ask Z history                   |

### **Close the Command Menu**

Press **Escape** to close command search, a dialog, or a drawer when that control is active.

### **Tips**

* Use command search when you know what you want but do not want to browse menus.
* Search by customer name, phone number, ticket title, or lead details.
* Use **Command/Ctrl + Enter** when your search is really a question for Ask Z.
* If a page is missing, confirm your user has permission to access it.
