I am using ArcGIS API for javascript 4.12. I have added a search widget into mapview. But the search suggestion is not correct. For example if i am searching 'Search CT' it is showing suggestion as 'Search RD'.  'Search CT' is available in data. Please help if you have any idea.

 

Thanks.

Hi Suraj Jha,

Can you please tell us a little bit more about the configuration of your Search widget? Are you searching a Feature Layer? Which fields?

You might have a look at this code sample for inspiration:

Search widget with multiple sources | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.12 

I hope you will manage to get it working after some additional research.

Cheers,

Thanks for reply. We are using map service with layer id as a new feature layer for search. The url is like this https://server.com:6443/arcgis/rest/services/folder1/folder2/MapServer/6 . We have already tried the sandbox sample suggested by you but there also we have the same issue. The code is like below.

var featureLayerDistricts = new FeatureLayer({
url:
"https://server.com:6443/arcgis/rest/services/folder1/folder2/MapServer/6 ",
popupTemplate: {
// autocasts as new PopupTemplate()
title: "My Search",
overwriteActions: true
}
});

Thanks.

One thing I would like to mention first time i get incorrect suggestion, after that when i delete couple of characters and re-type those characters I get the correct suggestions if again i do the same same thing I get incorrect suggestions. For example

1)First I type "Search CT" in search box I get "Search RD" as suggestions(Incorrect suggestions). 

2) I remove CT from Search box and type those(CT) again I get "Search CT" as suggestions (Correct Suggestions)

3) If I repeat step 2 I again get incorrect suggestions "Search RD" (Incorrect suggestions). 

Means if I perform step 2,  on every alternate search I am getting the correct suggestions. Hope I have explained the problem in details. If required I will provide more info.  Thanks.
