# Documents

Documents in Secoda are robust, and allow you to combine text, queries, and live Metrics in a notebook interface. Use Documents to find information about your organization's data or internal processes that are not directly tied to one specific table, term, or resource. Just like the dictionary, all documents can be found using search, and can be directly linked in other resources in the workspace.

Below are some examples of Documents use cases we see often:

* Writing process guides or project specs
* Documenting important queries
* Defining KPIs
* Posting video tutorials

## Documents Features

### Comments

[comments](https://docs.secoda.co/features/documents/comments "mention") can be added in order to collaborate with your co-workers on your Documents.

### Tag Resources as Related

Use the '@' command to tag and reference other resources from across the workspace like tables or dictionary terms.

This automatically adds those tagged resources as [relating-resources](https://docs.secoda.co/resource-and-metadata-management/relating-resources "mention") in the workspace.

You can hover over a resources that's tagged using the @ command to see a **preview** of the resource before clicking into it.

### Embeddings

Use the '/' command to add custom elements to a document.

Add embeds, files, links, tables, and many more interesting documentation formats to make data documentation more interesting. See a whole list of [embeds](https://docs.secoda.co/features/documents/embeds "mention").

### Anchor Links

For easier navigation within longer documents, you can create **anchor links** to specific sections.

Simply use `/h1` or `/h2` to designate headings, then click the "#" next to the heading to generate a link directly to that section.

### Find and Replace

Use command+f to find words and replace them with something else.
