Filter conversations

Filter by topic status

In the web app, you can control whether recent conversations includes all topics, just unmuted topics, or only topics you follow.

<Tabs> <TabItem label="Desktop/Web"> <FlattenedSteps> <GoToRecentConversations /> 
  1. Select **All topics**, **Standard view**, or **Followed topics** from
     the dropdown in the upper left of the **recent conversations** view.
</FlattenedSteps>
</TabItem> </Tabs>

Filter by keyword

<Tabs> <TabItem label="Desktop/Web"> <FlattenedSteps> <GoToRecentConversations /> 
  1. Use the **Filter topics** box at the top to find a conversation.
     You can filter by channel, topic, or direct message participants.
</FlattenedSteps>
</TabItem> </Tabs> <KeyboardTip> In the **recent conversations** view, you can use <kbd>T</kbd> to start filtering. </KeyboardTip>

Filter by folder

If your organization sorts channels into folders, you can filter recent conversations to show only conversations in channels in a specific folder.

<Tabs> <TabItem label="Desktop/Web"> <FlattenedSteps> <GoToRecentConversations /> 
  1. Select a folder from the folder dropdown at the top of the
     **recent conversations** view.

     view by filtering for a non-existent keyword.
