Can I use modifying filters to retrieve starred messages in slack?

Asked 2 years ago

I recently switched teams, and my team leader wants me to retrieve some pointers for a project I previously worked on before handing it over. I know I starred the messages with the directions, but they're buried beneath many other recent messages. I tried a quick search but got only partial results.

Slack is a perfect platform that lets you narrow your search to specific categories using different modifiers. As for the starred category, you can use an additional search modifier, has:star, to access the starred items. While using this modifier, you'll be shown the results you previously starred in your experience with slack.
