Search and Filters

Find items quickly using global search or narrow down lists with filters.

Prerequisites

  • Access to an Upstat project

The search bar in the top navigation finds items across your project.

  1. Click the search bar or use the keyboard shortcut
  2. Type your search query
  3. Results appear grouped by type (Incidents, Monitors, Team Members)
  4. Click a result to navigate directly to that item

Global search finds:

  • Incidents by title or ID
  • Monitors by name or URL
  • Team members by name or email
  • Catalog entities by name

2. Filter Within Sections

Each major section has its own filter toolbar for narrowing displayed items.

Incidents

Filter by:

  • Status - Open, Acknowledged, Resolved
  • Severity - Critical, High, Medium, Low
  • Labels - Custom tags applied to incidents
  • Assignee - Who is working on the incident

Monitors

Filter by:

  • Status - Up, Down, Degraded, Paused
  • Type - HTTP, SSL, Heartbeat
  • Region - Check location
  • Tags - Custom monitor tags

On-Call

Filter by:

  • Roster - Specific on-call roster
  • Date Range - View past or future schedules

3. Combine Filters

Apply multiple filters simultaneously to narrow results precisely.

  1. Select your first filter criterion
  2. Add additional filters as needed
  3. Results update automatically
  4. Clear individual filters or use Clear All to reset

Filters persist during your session but reset when you navigate away.


4. Sort Results

In list views, click column headers to sort:

  • Click once for ascending order
  • Click again for descending order
  • A third click removes the sort

Common sort options:

  • Last Updated - Most recently changed items first
  • Created - Newest or oldest items
  • Severity - Critical issues at the top
  • Name - Alphabetical ordering

Result

You can locate any item quickly using global search and refine large lists with section-specific filters.
