Daniel BöhmerIn #GitLab how to open an issue, merge request or other entity by ID/number quickly?
Until now I always happen to edit the URL and insert the ID. This feels so wrong.
Sam Beckham@dboehmer we may be adding that feature to the global search very soon.
Open up search, type in #1234 and it will take you to that issue. It’s not there yet, but we’re working on it as part of a command palette feature.
@Samdbeckham I accidentally used an `!` in my showcase. With `#42` I can find an issue.
When searching for a plain number like `42` in issues I suggest jumping to that issue directly.
Aboobacker MK@dboehmer @Samdbeckham That may not practical, for instance if 42 is an error code, user is searching for the issues with that error code

@dboehmer @Samdbeckham TIL!
I currently use browser keyword searches for my different projects, which is the same as you.
@Samdbeckham Can you give more details about the planned search feature?
@dboehmer not at my desk right now but I’ll find the issues for you in the morning
Here's the discussion around this. It's not a dedicated feaure, but a part of a larger one so there's no specific issue for it. This should show the progress though:
