Search primary field custom entity

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

We have a custom entity (product code) with a primary field as a single line text field type. We have selected Searchable in the field properties for this primary field. We cannot get the field to provide any results in the search areas that it should such as - search on entity view, search from lookup field. The field and entity have been published with data long enough (over 60 days) that any search crawl should have been done.

    Hi Emann, thanks for reaching out.

    Have you adjusted the system view "Quick Search View"? This is what controls what fields are applied to search functionality. Add that key column to the Find Columns list and this should correct your issue.

    Have a great day!
