4.32 Custom Search Sources Always Gets First Suggestion

Justin_Greco — Mon, 24 Feb 2025 17:54:51 GMT

I am working on upgrading an app from 4.30 to 4.32 which has custom search sources, similar to this sample:

https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/sample-code/sandbox/?sample=widgets-search-customsource

However, it is always returning the first suggestion in the getResults method. After trying the sample, I see the same behavior there as well. It works correctly in the sample if I revert back to 4.31.

If I type "8 boul" in the search widget, and then select 8 La Boule 79240 Vernoux-en-Gatine, it selects and zooms to 8 Boule 22940 Plaintel, which is the first in the list.

Thanks for reporting, and for testing so quickly @Justin_Greco. I see the behavior in the sample. We are investigating.

Hi @Justin_Greco, we may have found the issue. The "key" should be a unique identifier for the suggestion. Currently, the sample needs to be updated to reflect this (coming soon). If you modify line 79 of the sample to be be a unique identifier, it seems to work as expected for me. Can you test in your app?

Just tested in my app and that fixed it! Thanks for the quick response.
