# Browse checks

The **Checks** page displays all checks defined in a data contract and tracked in Soda Cloud. It provides a quick overview of check health across datasets, allowing you to create **custom groupings** by applying filters such as data source, dataset, owners, or status (pass, fail, warning). This helps you focus on specific areas or teams that matter most.

You can also review key details like the check type, the dataset it belongs to, and the time of the last scan. Use the search bar to quickly find a specific check by name, and sort the list by name, last run time, or check status.

You can filter checks by properties such as data source, dataset, owners, attributes, or status (pass, fail, warning). Use the search bar to quickly find a specific check by name.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.soda.io/manage-issues/browse-checks.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
