The command palette
Jump to any page or start any action with Cmd/Ctrl+K.
Press Cmd/Ctrl + K and a command palette opens — one search box that reaches every destination in the left sidebar plus the most common "start something" actions. Once you know where you're going, it's the fastest way to get there.
Opening it
Cmd + K on macOS, Ctrl + K on Windows and Linux. It works even while your cursor is inside a text field, and pressing the combo again closes it.
The palette is available on any page with the left sidebar — everywhere inside a project, plus the admin area. (Databasin One runs as its own full-screen surface with its own controls.)
What's inside
Results come in two groups:
- Navigation — the same destinations as the left sidebar: Home, Databasin One, Integrations, the Developer, Lakehouse, Sharing, and Tools items, and All Projects to leave the current project. Project admins also see Users and Configuration. The list respects the same module availability as the sidebar — if a section is hidden there, it won't surface here.
- Actions — task-phrased starting points like Sync data (Pipelines), Automate a task, Upload to datalake, Talk to your data, and Run SQL. Picking one drops you straight into that flow.
Start typing to filter both groups. Matches at the start of a name rank first, and a forgiving fuzzy match catches close-enough typing.
Driving it
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| ↑ / ↓ | Move the selection |
| Enter | Open the selected item |
| Esc | Close the palette |
Clicking an item works too, and clicking anywhere outside the panel closes it. Items that open in a new tab — Databasin One, for example — show a small external-link arrow.
