# Search

Search a Felt map for places, addresses and features by keyword.

## Searching for places

* The ![](https://217108486-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FmRfGitkyjOEMvVsEyGWN%2Fuploads%2FB6KaZyRFuotAz4ALBUK8%2Fsearch-right-angle.svg?alt=media\&token=cac34762-24b6-46be-8164-10be9cbc426d)Search tool on the right side of the top toolbar returns two kinds of results:
  * Places on the map (indicated by a globe icon)
  * Features inside data layers (indicated by point, line and polygon icons)
* Selecting a place result shows a temporary highlighted marker and popup at that location — nothing is added to the map until you choose an action.
  * In edit mode, the popup shows an **Add…** menu so you can add a **Pin**, a **Comment**, or a feature to an eligible layer at that location.
  * For viewers with comment access, the popup offers an **Add comment** button instead. Other viewers just see the popup, with no action to take.
  * Close the popup, click elsewhere on the map, or press **Esc** to dismiss it without adding anything.
* You can also search coordinates in `latitude,longitude` format.

## Find extension

The Find extension enables map viewers to search locations and layers by entering keywords in the search box.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.felt.com/tools/search.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
