# Searching for Contacts Currently in Flows

You've always been able to search for contacts with a query based on the [contact's field.](/en/article/searching-for-contacts-e3pk8t/) Now, you can also search for contacts currently in a particular flow, or those not in any flow, by using the same query method. 

**Contacts currently in a flow**

Once you know the flow, you can search for active contacts:

1. Go to your Contacts tab.
