What is Content Finder in Hygraph?

Content Finder is a feature in Hygraph (currently in Beta) that enables users to search for any content across all models, locales, and fields within their Hygraph project.

You can activate Content Finder by pressing CMD+K (Mac) or CTRL+K (Windows) from anywhere in the Hygraph UI. [Source]

How does Content Finder help users work more efficiently?

Content Finder removes friction from finding content by offering a single search bar that scans entries across all content models, locales, and stages, including deeply nested structures. This means users no longer need to open separate views or scroll through long lists, saving significant time and allowing teams to focus on building rather than searching. [Source]

Who can benefit from using Content Finder?

Content Finder is designed for both content editors and developers. Editors can quickly locate and update content, while developers can search for schema and technical entries. Early beta feedback highlights its usefulness for both roles. [Source]

#Find content faster, work smarter

Searching for the right content can slow down your work. Whether you're an editor or a developer, it's frustrating to click through multiple models, check different locales, or guess where something is stored. Now introducing: Content Finder (Beta).

The name is literally what it does: It’s a fast and simple way to search across all your content in Hygraph no matter which model, locale, or field it’s in. Just type what you're looking for, and go directly to the right entry allowing you to locate entries more efficiently.

#Built to remove friction from finding your content

With Content Finder, teams get a single, unified search experience that scans entries across all content models, locales, and stages including deeply nested structures.

You don’t need to open a separate view or scroll through long lists. Just press CMD+K (Mac) or CTRL+K (Windows) from anywhere in the Hygraph UI to get started.

The Beta version can currently support:

  • Natural text queries - no advanced syntax required
  • Character normalisation - so a search for “Cafe” will still match entries labeled “Café”
  • Exact string matching - to pinpoint the right content instantly
  • Role-based visibility - you only see content you have permission to access

Here's what an early beta user already shared with us:

I'm a huge fan of Content Finder already. It isn’t just for content editors, it makes devs’ lives easier by searching for schema as well.

— Principal Full-stack Web Developer (Leading interactive game entertainment company)

#Why this matters

In modern projects, content is reused across pages, products, and regions. That’s powerful, but it makes things harder to find. A small update can turn into a long search. Just imagine the time you wasted just searching for the content entry in your CMS.

Now with Content Finder, teams can stay focused on building, not searching.
