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 and annotations stay with the asset and are visible wherever you can access it. Board links are scoped to their board. Quick Share Links are scoped to an ad hoc multi-item selection. Asset share links remain attached to the asset.
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.
That said, If you leave feedback on a file while viewing it in one board, that feedback will be visible across all file locations within your Air workspace. An asset share link remains attached to the asset rather than to one board location. A Current link follows the asset’s current version, while a V# link remains fixed to the selected numbered version.
