Browser shortcuts

Add this URL as a custom search engine in your browser:

https://api.modernloop.dev/go?q=%s

Assign it a keyword such as go. Entering go ENG-26239 in the address bar opens the matching ModernLoop shortcut. If no shortcut matches, the endpoint searches Google for the full query. The %s placeholder is required; the browser replaces it with what you type.

Enter a pull request number with a leading #, such as go #12793, to search for an open pull request with that number in the ModernLoop GitHub organization. If one exists, the shortcut opens the pull request; otherwise, it uses the configured fallback search engine.

Use logs to open Datadog Logs. Add a search query after logs to pre-fill the Datadog query field, for example go logs service:api status:error opens https://app.datadoghq.com/logs?query=service%3Aapi%20status%3Aerror.

Shorter aliases are available for common tools: dd (Datadog), lr (LogRocket), ld (LaunchDarkly), and amp (Amplitude). Use ld <flag-key> to open a specific LaunchDarkly feature flag.

Use can <uuid> to open a candidate in Retool, emp <uuid-or-email> for an employee, and id <org-uuid-or-name> <input-id> for the Retool ID lookup tool. Use kb <query> to search the ModernLoop help center. Shortcuts docs and pylon open the docs site and Pylon app.

Choose a fallback search engine

Google is the default. Set the optional fallback parameter to use another search engine when no shortcut matches.

For example, this configuration uses Yahoo when the query does not match a shortcut:

https://api.modernloop.dev/go?fallback=yahoo&q=%s

An unsupported fallback value returns HTTP 400. The endpoint does not require an API key.
