Document autocomplete

Chat autocomplete in Glean suggests relevant documents as you type in the chat input. You can click a suggestion to insert it into your message or open the document directly without sending a separate query.

As you type keywords or phrases, Glean surfaces real‑time document suggestions below the input. Suggestions are selected by matching your input and context with document titles, content, and metadata so the most relevant items appear first.

note

Suggestions currently focus on documents and related files that match your input and context.

With this feature, you can:

  • Find the right document faster while composing a prompt without switching to Search
  • Insert a suggested document into your message to give Glean immediate context
  • Open a suggested document in a new tab to review details before you ask a question

If you type a short, keyword-style query instead, Glean can also show inline search results directly in the conversation. For more information, see Search results in Chat.

Privacy and permissions

Autocomplete suggestions include only content that you have permission to see. Glean is permission-aware and follows your organization's data governance rules across all surfaces.

Get started

  1. Open Glean and start a chat.

  2. In the input, type a keyword, for example, project, doc title, or team name.

  3. Pick a suggestion to either:

    • Insert the document into your message, or
    • Open the document to view it.
