Short answer

How can I find specific reports or spaces in Mode using AI?

Your AI uses the Mode MCP to list all available spaces and then enters specific spaces to pull details. This lets you locate report tokens and understand your organizational structure through natural conversation. You'll get a clear map of your data layout.

Where every search lands.

Outcomes of workspace exploration

The AI organizes the data it finds into these specific views.

STRUCTURE

Workspace maps

The AI identifies the hierarchy of your personal and shared spaces. You get a clear view of how reports are grouped.

TOKENS

Report identification

The agent pulls specific report tokens from within a space. This makes it easy to grab the exact ID you need for other tools.

ACCESS

Space inventory

You get a full list of every space you have permission to see. This helps you find hidden or forgotten data silos.

HUMAN

Manual verification

The AI identifies spaces it cannot access due to permissions. You'll need to check those manually in the Mode UI.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask about Mode

The AI moves through your Mode environment step by step to find your data.

  1. Scan the environment

    The agent looks at the top level of your Mode account to see what spaces exist.

    list_spaces

  2. Drill into a space

    Once it finds a relevant area, the agent enters that specific space to see its contents.

    get_space

  3. Locate report tokens

    The AI searches the contents of the selected space to find the specific report tokens you asked for.

    get_space

  4. Map the hierarchy
