May I use contextual search in catalog item?

[samye]

Hello,

May I use contextual search in catalog item? I knew contextual search can be used for fields in table(form), record producer and wizard. Is it possible to use contextual search for certain field (eg. short desc) in a catalog item?

I checked below wiki document. Seems it does only mentioned how to config contextual search in table(form), record producer and wizard. Any help will be much appreciated.

This worked great, however to get it to work in the Service Portal you have to add the contextual search variable macro in your catalog item. I see it in your screenshot however not explained in the steps for people who follow the guide. 

You may have to add the Widget search in the form design. Wasn't OOB for me.

Hi Laxman,

It's been re-labeled as "Custom".
