Hi, my name is Jarek Ostrowski I'm, a product designer on the create team at gate lab and today we're gonna go through how to discover, merge, requests that need reviews through labels in the previous milestone. I went through this once and since then, there's been some small changes that have cut down on some steps and make it easier for you to find the merger quests that you need to review through a label, and this is oftentimes especially I, get lab. We use labels a whole lot and we have review labels.

So if you add a review label to a merge request, there's someone responsible for that label. So how do they discover that? How do they know something needs review other than getting it to do or getting a notification, and that would be looking at a list of merge requests with that specific label tied to it. So we're going to go through that workflow now so first thing obviously is to go to get lab comm and then you'll go to the project that you're responsible for so here. This is kind of nice.

I see my frequently visited projects so I'll go to the project that I know, I need to make reviews or check on any merge requests that need review and I'll go to the list of merge requests in that project, and here you get all merge, requests, there's a whole bunch of labels oftentimes. You know other people are responsible depending on the label, but for me, I'm looking for a specific label and I want to filter by that label.

Now previously, in the last milestone of this workflow I had to type in a label and then make sure I'm filtering by label and then search for that label and that can be kind of a cumbersome process. There's a lot of typing there's a lot of action needing to be taken, but now we made a small change to recent searches which actually didn't even know.

This was recent searches until we changed it from an icon to text and now that I know that it's a lot easier for me to filter by that label because I do it all the time.

So now, if I go into my recent searches, drop down, I see the label that I've filter by all the time and I know this is a will have a little the list of em ours that I need to actually review so I'll go ahead and click that recent search and another nice piece of that is and very underrated is if you're typing in the search bar in the filter bar you actually have to hit enter to submit.

But with recent searches all I have to do is click on the recent search and it activates that filter so right there with one click, I can go and activate that label. Now you can see all the merge requests that need my attention. Whether or not somebody had pinged me saying: hey Jarek. Can you review this as long as they add the label? I'll have access to that here, and these are all the things that I need to take care of. So this is a small improvement that we made.

That makes a really big difference and we're gonna continue to try and make the even better one. So thank you very much.
