# Selecting and Filtering Projects

Find and pull up the projects you want to plan using search, portfolios, filters, and starred shortcuts.

### Overview

The left-hand column of the Planner Space is your **_project selector_.** It lists all projects available to you based on your permission level. You can search, filter, and organize projects to build your planning view. Each user's selection is personal — changing your view does not affect anyone else.

### What You See

-   **Project list** — all projects in your account, organized by portfolio
    
-   **Search bar** — type a project name or number to find it quickly
    
-   **Filter button** — narrow projects by project manager, client, or other attributes
    
-   **Starred portfolio** — a personal shortcut folder at the top of the list
    
-   **My Projects portfolio** — projects where you have spent time or are a member
    
-   **Import portfolio** — projects synced from your ERP integration
