# Using flow search

Use the search option to find specific nodes within the current flow.

When you open a flow, the search option displays in the upper left. You can enter a search term to locate nodes using any of the following parameters:

* **Connector name**: A connector's official name.

* **Connector instance name**: The name used in your environment for a specific connector configuration.

* **Capability**: A specific connector capability.

* **Node title**: The title of a node.

* **Node description**: The description value of a node.

* **Node ID**: The unique ID assigned to a node.

## Steps

1. In DaVinci, on the **Flows** tab, locate and open the flow.

2. Click the search icon and enter a search term.
