Where does my content "live" on Air?

For the answer to this FAQ, imagine your Air workspace to be an apartment building.

The building of your Air workspace is organized into two main places.

  • Search = the lobby, where all content technically lives in one shared space.

  • Boards = individual apartments, each with its own conversations and keys.

A file can appear in both Search and Boards. Comments on a file are visible in Search and in any boards you can access. Share links created in a board remain unique to that board.

Search

Search is your workspace’s central view - the main “lobby” of your building.


All workspace-level views (Search, Saved searches, People, Recently added, My uploads, Recently modified, Unused items, Untagged items, and My favorites) are simply different doorways to filter into that same shared community space.

Comments or share links created in one of these areas are visible across all of them, because they all are varying views of the same location in your workspace.

Boards

Boards are independent spaces - like apartments in the same building.

Comments you leave on a file in any board appear wherever the file appears, including in Search and other boards you can access. Share links you create in a board remain tied to that board.
