Graytool provides keyboard shortcuts for efficient usage.

Shortcut Safety
Shortcuts are checked to prevent accidental triggering while typing:
Non-triggering Situations
- Typing in an input field (
<input>,<textarea>) - Typing in a contentEditable element
- Except Ace Editor —
Ctrl+Htriggers in Ace Editor
Why?
This check is necessary to avoid conflicts with Graylog's own shortcuts and to preserve user experience.
Disabling Shortcuts
Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts Enabled → false
This disables all shortcuts.
tip
If you only want to disable the search history shortcut, turning off Search History Enabled is sufficient.
