What is Rovo Search?
Rovo Search is an AI-supported feature that helps you find information across Atlassian and connected third-party apps. Using a single search bar, you can retrieve content from tools like Jira, Confluence, Google Drive, SharePoint, Loom, and Figma. This reduces the need to switch between multiple tools when looking for specific information.
Rovo Search and Chat uses Teamwork Graph, Atlassian’s unified data layer, to personalize results. Teamwork Graph connects teamwork data across Atlassian apps, Marketplace apps, and third-party tools, and links AI workflows to your organization’s knowledge.
Rovo Search respects the permissions set in your connected tools, ensuring you only see what you’re authorized to access.
👉 For example: Kenji needs to find the latest project updates to develop a report for senior stakeholders. Previously, he would have spent hours combing through Jira work items, Confluence pages, and documents in Google Drive. Now, with Rovo Search, he can quickly gather all relevant information across his Atlassian and connected third-party apps with a single search. Just like that, he has everything he needs to quickly jump into creating his report.

Find the answers you need from Rovo Search
Rovo Search app understands the intent of your searches and your content. This means you don’t have to waste time guessing exactly which keywords to type to find what you’re looking for; you can simply ask a question using the same natural language you would use when asking a peer. Rovo Search can detect when you’re asking a question.
👉 For example:
- “How to connect to the VPN”
- “What is Project Blueberry?”
- “When is the next holiday?”
- “Who is Jane Smith?”
- “Where is the next TEAM event?”
- “What is PPQ?”
When Rovo Search detects that you’ve asked a question, it can display an answer in natural language above your search results, in the form of a knowledge card or definition. These give a brief overview of relevant information without going into excessive detail. Answers are based only on content you have permission to access, so different people may see different results depending on their access. The answer cites its sources and may suggest follow-up questions you can explore further with Rovo Chat.
👇 This is an example of Rovo search results with a follow-up question to dive deeper into a topic.
Find trusted results quickly with Rovo Search bookmarks
Rovo Search bookmarks are results that show at the top of the search, based on particular search terms. Your admin can choose to add bookmarks for common search terms and popular links, so you and your teammates can find things faster. Your admin can bookmark any URL — it doesn’t need to be in your Atlassian apps or previously found in search.
👇This is an example of a bookmarked search result.
Only org, site, and app admins can add Search bookmarks; org admins can also edit them.
