Filter results – Autocomplete

[lzuhuo]

Hello Alex,
In this solution, is it possible to filter out suggestions according to a list view, or parameter (query)? Thanks

Sorry, but this is currently not possible.

Hello Alexander, could you see adding this to the Autocomplete solution any time soon?
That is, beeing able to set a (filtered) list view as the base for an autocomplete search?

spjs.ac.textField({
“applyTo”: “cmPartner”,
“helpText”: “Vertragspartner auswählen…”,
“listGuid”: “FB46E97C-CAB4-4537-A566-4DBE0FD866E3”,
“viewGuid”: “…”, ???

Alternatively, would it be possible to add a function call to do a custom check of a list entry before it is added to the selection?

spjs.ac.textField({
“applyTo”: “cmPartner”,
“helpText”: “Vertragspartner auswählen…”,
“listGuid”: “FB46E97C-CAB4-4537-A566-4DBE0FD866E3”,
“validationCallbackFunction”: “…..”,

Hi,
I have looked at it, and will post an updated version over the weekend that lets you set a “filterCAML” in the argument object to pre-filter the list. I have not set it up so you can pull the CAML directly from a list view as this would require an additional query to be run on form load.

Hi Alex
This is gonna be very helpful when it is ready. Thanks

Looking forward to testing it. I guess this is really helpful for anyone in Need for a dynamic lookup list, e.g. only looking up projects that are currently active, or looking up vendors marked as approved etc.
Thanks!!!

Sorry for the delay – I’ll try to get it released later tonight.
