Field typeahead configuration

GLewis5 · ‎01-28-2022

On the Incident form, when I start to type in the name of a Caller, the system brings up a list of users showing the name and email. Where is this list of fields (name + email) configured?

Here is the answer:

I needed to configure 3 attributes

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter
ref_ac_columns=<semicolon separated list of field names>
ref_ac_columns_search=true

There was a Dictionary Override in place that was blocking my attributes. Instead of adding the attributes to the Dictionary record, I had to add them to the Dictionary Override record.

Do a right mouse click on the field's label and select configure dictionary. There is everything in the attributes section

ref_ac_columns=field1;field2

this attribute will show you the columns (fields) you want to see in your list

Not really helpful. The attribute says "ref_contributions=user_show_incidents". How does it know to display name and email?

Ahh. Your second reply was helpful. The attribute "ref_ac_columns is not showing in my instance".
