# AI Assistant & Search

Your assistant for finding anything, intelligently and instantly

The new **Search experience** helps you find information across the platform in seconds. Whether you're looking for documentation, tasks, apps, or posts, everything is just a few clicks away. 

The built-in **AI Assistant** goes beyond finding information—it helps you quickly understand, summarize, and act on the content you need with less effort.

**With Search, you can:**

* **Search across all platform content** from one central location
* **Ask the AI Assistant** to find or summarize, and surface relevant information instantly
* **Get direct answers** about policies, procedures, and other detailed content

**Search** keeps you focused on what matters so you can work more efficiently.

## 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://interfacing.gitbook.io/interfacing-help-files/release-notes-16.0/ai-assistant-and-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.
