Saved Searches

Manage personal and shared saved searches, pinned views, owners, alerts, and recent usage. The screen connects Saved and Shared so product teams can find the “New saved search” action while checking saved searches and shared.

Use this reference when you need to design this workflow inside an existing product. The example includes practical records such as Renewals at risk and High-priority incidents, rather than an empty visual shell.

What this screen helps users do

Product teams need a clear “New saved search” action without losing sight of saved searches, shared and the affected records. Keep the decision and its outcome clear before moving to the next task.

Key elements

Primary action: New saved search is clearly available where the task happens.
Main view: Saved keeps the starting point obvious.
Connected view: Shared supplies nearby context.
Metric: Saved searches is visible with a meaningful value.
Another signal: Shared helps people judge what to do next.
Representative record: Renewals at risk makes the example specific.
Second record: High-priority incidents shows the pattern works beyond one item.

States worth designing

Empty filtered view; show what people can do instead of leaving a blank panel.
Loading saved without changing the layout unexpectedly.
Bulk action partly failed; explain the problem and preserve work.
Permission denied for shared; clarify who can continue.
Success after choosing New saved search; confirm the result and the next step.
Network or data refresh failure; offer a retry without losing context.

Where this screen sits in the flow

Saved → Shared → New saved search → Review outcome

Why these choices work

Show the columns people use to act, not every field at once. Keep sort and filter state when returning from a record.

In this design, people should be able to compare Renewals at risk with High-priority incidents. Make saved searches clear, then use shared to explain whether the next step needs attention.

Before handing this to a designer or engineer, check keyboard focus, error copy, permissions and what happens after they choose the “New saved search” action. The happy path alone is not enough.
