- Real-Time Search: When used with the OnChange trigger, an automatic search can be performed with each keystroke.
- Multi-Field Search: In future versions, simultaneous searches in multiple columns may be supported. In this case, a search parameter can be created from data from multiple Text Input fields (e.g., by combining them).
- Comprehensive Filtering: The Search Table action can be used in a chain with more advanced filtering actions.
Technical Risks and Controls
- Performance Issues: Instant search operations may slow down with very large data sets. Pagination and loading limits should be used.
- Empty Input: When the search field is empty, old filters should be removed or all data should be reloaded.
- Table ID Errors: Incorrect table selection or input ID definitions can cause errors. We recommend using the Symbol Picker.
- Duplicate Results in the Same Data: Fields that are not filtered may appear in the search results. Review the columns on the UI.
The Search Table action enables users to perform fast and flexible searches in tables within the application. Optimised at both the interface and data layer, this action improves user experience, makes large data sets more accessible, and simplifies interactive listing operations.
