# Searching Cases

In addition to tasks, you can also search cases. This is typically to provide an update to a customer, police or legal counsel about the status of a case.

You can search on any of the criteria shown below:

The result will show the cases and their status.

From the case search you can go directly to the case view, but you will not see any pending tasks.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.tomorrowx.com/cap/product-reference/working-with-case-managers/searching-cases.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
