Hubs
Browsing all your hubs at once
The Hubs overview shows every hub as a card, searches every hub's chats at once, and keeps archived hubs.
Step 1
Open the overview
Press Hubs in the left rail, or the Hubs heading at the top of the Hubs panel. The overview lists every hub you are in as a card. From inside a hub, the back arrow beside its name returns here.

Step 2
Each card is a summary
A card shows the hub's colour, icon, name and description, how many chats it has, the Team unread count and when it was last active. Press the name or Open hub at the bottom to go in; the gear opens Manage. Hub admins can rename a hub by double-clicking its name or choosing Rename hub in the card menu.

Step 3
Peek inside without opening it
The Chats, Team and Projects strip on each card opens a short preview underneath: the latest chats, the newest Team threads with their last message, or the hub's projects. Press an item to go straight to it.

Step 5
Search every hub at once
The Search chats box above the cards looks through the chat titles of every hub at the same time. Cards with no match disappear, and the rest open on their matching chats with a count such as 1 / 5 chats.

Archived hubs live here
An archived hub disappears from the Hubs panel and the grid. Scroll to the bottom of the overview and open Archived to see them. Their colour outline and icon are dimmed.

Bring one back, or delete it
Hub admins see Unarchive hub, which brings it back exactly as it was. Only the person who created the hub sees Delete hub, which moves it to Trash for 30 days.

If you lose access to a hub
If you open a hub you are no longer a member of, or one that was deleted, Secretary shows You no longer have access to this hub. and returns you to the Hubs overview. Ask a hub admin to invite you again.
