# [Search Content] - About Views

This page explains how the **Views** feature in Contentstack Search Content helps content managers and teams quickly find and manage entries and assets using predefined and customizable views. Read this when you want to understand available view types (Popular, Saved, and Content Type Views) and how to use them to streamline navigation and search.

## About Views

The **Views** feature in Contentstack simplifies how you manage and navigate your content by offering predefined and customizable views. It provides quick access to entries and assets based on **Popular Views**, **Saved Views**, and **Content Type Views**. In the **Saved Views** section, you can save and manage your customized views. After applying specific filters and advanced queries, you can save the search results of these configurations for future use.

Contentstack offers predefined views tailored to common search scenarios. These **Popular Views** provide quick access to relevant information, reducing the need for extensive manual setup and enhancing navigation:
- **Base Entries:** Displays a list of all base [entries](/docs/content-managers/author-content/about-entries) available in the [stack](/docs/developers/set-up-stack/about-stack).
- **Base and Entry Variants:** Displays a list of all base entries and their [variants](/docs/content-managers/entry-variants/about-entry-variants) available in the stack.
- **All Assets:** Displays all the assets that are uploaded in the stack.
- **Modified by Me:** Lists entries or assets modified by you.
- **Published by Me:** Lists entries or assets published by you.
- **Not Published:** Lists entries or assets not published in any [environment](/docs/developers/set-up-environments/about-environments).

The **Content Type Views** section provides a list of all the [content types](/docs/developers/create-content-types/about-content-types) available in the stack, allowing you to search and filter entries based on content types. You can also group views by labels.

Additionally, you can create a new entry directly from this section by clicking the **Create Entry** icon, making it even easier to manage your content on the go.

Whether you're managing entries or assets, Views streamline the process, helping you focus on your content.

**Note:** All your previous saved searches have been moved under Saved Views.
