how to limit the search capability only to the column listed on the widget

[attanhes]

Hi,

I have cloned "Data table from instance definition" to add "keyword search" capability to this widget. After the clone widget works as expected but our testing team found a slight issue. When users search keyword within this search  it started it's even searching everting within incident record including  work_notes field data as well and give the search results based on that.

Is it possible to limit the "keyword search" capability only to the column listed on the widgets.?

Hi,

When you search it is calling the Data Table widget (widget-data-table), and here there is a 123Textquery321 on your selected table, so that is why it is doing a broad search: 

I think you would need to change the 123TEXTQUERY to then query for the specific columns, e.g. short_description contains data.keywords or something like that. I don't think you would want to change the generic index of incident in this case.

If really needed you could clone this widget, and call it in your already cloned Data table from instance definition instead of 'widget-data-table', you then call your cloned instance with your adjusted filter (replace line 50):

Thank you so much for the quick reply. 

Unfortunately, I am unable to find "Data Table widget" in my person development under "widget instance" list. Could you please send me direct URL for the "Data Table widget" ?

Hi Sebastian,

I have found the widget under "widget", will try your solution.
