Is it possible to disable search for a particular field (type - string) in the list view of a table. Basically the need here is to prevent user from searching anything for that column alone and not other columns in the table.
Thanks in advance.

If I'm not mistaken it shows all the columns you have on the list. So remove them from your list if you don't want to be able to search on them.
or else
you can use list_edit ACL and block the field update
OR
you can use before update BR and block the update
OR
you can use onCellEdit and block the update.

Thanks for your reply.
I do not want to remove the field from the list view nor do i want to disable updates/edits made for the field from list view. Only requirement is to not be able to search like we usually do for fields from list view.
I want something like this but for my custom field:
This is just an example from OOB cmdb_ci table. My field is a string field for which i want search disabled.
