Is there a widget to search records in tables in my scoped application?

I have created a service portal for my scoped application. I want to user to be able to search on any data on my underlying tables. I defined search sources pointing my tables but used homepage search widget to search and also tried couple of other widgets. But it's search in knowledge bases and returning no results even if data is the table (screen shot below).  I have configured the table for contextual search. Are there any widgets which can do this?

I have created text index, generated index on the tables and added the tables as source in the portal. As well as in system definition->Dictionary have set 'Text Index' attribute to true for these tables where type is 'Collection'. System Scheduler-> Scheduled Jobs text index events process is also configured.

 

Search on the portal is working fine in development.

But when deployed update on test instance, search is not working. Verified on the test instance, all the required objects are deployed on the test instances. 

Do text indexes have to generated on test instance manually?
