5. A computer-implemented method comprising:

causing display of, on a user device, a collaboration client interface to a system comprising a collaboration system data store storing a set of collaboration records and a query redirection record system data store storing a set of query redirection records, each query redirection record of the set of query redirection records corresponds to a respective collaboration record of the set of collaboration records, is generated using data from the respective collaboration record, comprises a subset of information from the respective collaboration record, and comprises a first link to the respective collaboration;

obtaining a user input received at an input control of the collaboration client interface;

obtaining, at a browse control of the collaboration client interface, one or more selected search options from a search menu that includes a set of selectable search options regarding the user input;

analyzing the user input to identify one or more search terms;

conducting a first search in the query redirection record system data store using the one or more search terms, the first search performed prior to a search of the collaboration system data store;

in response to the first search, identifying one or more responsive query redirection records:

causing display of the one or more query redirection records, each of the one or more query redirection records comprising a second link configured to cause launch of an issue tracking interface managed by an issue tracking system;

in response to a user selection of a particular link displayed in a query redirection record of the one or more responsive query redirection records, causing display of the issue tracking interface including issue information relating to a particular issue managed by the issue tracking system, the issue information prepopulated using the user input received at the input control; and

in response to identifying no query redirection records from the search of the query redirection record system:

causing a search of the collaboration system data store using at least a portion of the text input and in accordance with the one or more selected search options of the set of selectable search options; and

causing display of one or more collaboration records identified by the search of the collaboration system data store.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein:

the computer-implemented method further comprises:

obtaining context information associated with the collaboration client interface; and

scoring each first link based on the context information.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein:

the computer-implemented method further comprises:

scoring each first link based on a history of previous shares or views of each first link.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the user input includes text input provided to a field of the collaboration client interface.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein:

the collaboration system data store storing the set of collaboration records is managed by a collaboration system;

the query redirection record system data store storing the set of query redirection records is managed by a query redirection record system; and

the query redirection record system is separate from the collaboration system.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the collaboration client interface is a message creation interface provided by one of: an instant messaging system, an issue tracking system, a wiki system, or an email system.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein:

the system comprises:

a query redirection record system comprising the collaboration system data store storing the set of collaboration records; and

a query redirection system comprising the query redirection record system data store storing the set of query redirection records;

one or more query redirection records further include a third party link; and

activation of the third party link redirects to a third party system different from the query redirection record system and the collaboration system.

12. A method comprising:

causing display of, on a user device, a collaboration client interface to a collaboration system and a query redirection record system, the collaboration system comprising a collaboration system data store storing a set of collaboration records, the query redirection record system comprising a query redirection record system data store separate from the collaboration system data store and storing a set of query redirection records, each query redirection record of the set of query redirection records corresponds to a respective collaboration record of the set of collaboration records, is generated using data from the respective collaboration record, comprises a subset of information from the respective collaboration record, and comprises a first link to the respective collaboration record;

receiving a user input received by a user input control of the collaboration client interface;

receiving, at a browse control of the collaboration client interface, one or more selected search options from a search menu that includes a set of selectable search options regarding the user input;
