Does the auto complete element allow free input?

I’m looking to use an autocomplete element, much like an input with a simple datalist. However it seems like the autocomplete will not allow users to enter text that isn’t in the options list.
Is this possible?

Thank you for your question. Let me check with the team and see how we can assist you. I will get back to you as soon as possible.

What you can do, is the following:

  1. With an On search workflow save the text that’s being written into a variable
  2. Bind the text to a collection filter / send the variable to your backend/api, make sure to fetch your collection on search (add an another workflow action to do so).
  3. Bind the collection to the option list

Now your “options” will appear dynamically as the collection changes each time :slight_smile:
