Hi,

 

I need to enable global search for new tables and include some extra fields in it. I created search sources. Now I need to add a few more fields in these searches. Can anyone please guide. 

 

Regards,

Hi @faizu 

 

You can do via Search Source configuration.

 

To add the search source for global search, select the Now Experience Search Configuration record. To add the search source for a workspace application, select the record for that application. For example, to add a search source for Agent Workspace, select the Agent Workspace Search Config record. Select Submit.

Hi @Shailesh Kumar1 ,

 

Thanks for your prompt response. The table you mentioned is for portal search sources. But I need it in native (backend) for next generation UI. the table is sys_search_source.

Hi,
I hope you found the answer to your question.
I'm sharing the solution here for completeness.

In order to search for a field in the Global Search Bar, it needs to be present in the (non-personal) view of the list. This way, you will be able to search for it using the Global Search Bar.
Additionally, the table you created must be present in the "text_search" table.
Have a great day : )
