Search

Sep 7, 2026  

It’s now easy to find your documents of interest. Finally!

https://patantara.com/notations now has a search bar as its primary interaction. Type any name you expect to find in the title of a document you have access to and it’ll pop up in the results below the search bar. For example, typing “kalyani” and pressing the Enter key or clicking the search icon will get you documents with the word “kalyani” in it, irrespective of what diacritic marks were used for the name.

We hope to expand this to be more flexible going forward, so stay tuned.

Documents you created

To find documents you created, add by:me to your search term. You can use this without any search term as well. This works only if you’re logged in.

Documents created by a specific person

To find documents shared with you that were created by a specific person, use by:<their-email-id> (ex: by:someone@somewhere.com)

Documents viewable by someone

You may have shared documents with someone and want to restrict the list to the documents they can view. For this, add viewable:<their-email-id> to the search.

Documents editable by someone

You may be co-authoring a document with someone and want to restrict the list to the documents they also have edit access to. For this, add editable:<their-email-id> to the search.
