To add a search in the service portal

Issue Description:

In the "My Tickets" section, searching with keywords does not return relevant tickets, even when they exist.

 

Example:
When searching for the keyword "AD" under Closed Tickets, no results are displayed, despite the presence of matching tickets.

 

However, if the user enters a specific ticket number (e.g., RITM or INC), the ticket is correctly retrieved.

 

Customer Expectation:
The customer would like to be able to view all tickets they have raised through the portal by using relevant keywords, not just ticket numbers.

Can you go to  "My Request Filter"  module and check what is the setting done for incident table.

 

In the primary field to display   field  , is it set as "Number" or "Short Description".

 

If it is set as number change it to short description,  and then see by reloading the portal , if the change are reflected or not , when you are searching with short description

ok , so you are still facing the issue despite that setting or your issue is resolved ?

 

 since you marked the answer as correct

 

And also , why is your portal page empty , it should have  "ticket" value in it , if you are searching on ticket page. Also try putting something like description, priority and caller in secondary field and see how the search works.

 

Let me know after making changes.
