Hello!
I´ve tried to use Your plugin Autocomplete! It is a great solution, but I cannot do one simple thing. If i am searching from the database, it shows me the results, but I´d like to use that result as a value. How to do that?
Expample: I have Autocomplete field in Projects, to find the customer. If i am typing, I find the right one, now I´d like to use that value as customer.
Kind regards
Vemp!

Yes, thats true! I need to get CustomerId. I need to search for customer and when i am clicking on the result, it fills customerId. At the moment I created input and webblock and it searches after typing, but probably i need add some sort of screen action and link it to my listrecords onClickAction. Just I do not know how to build that screen action properly.
At the OnNotify of the autoComplete widget you can set a screen action where you can get the Identifier by using the action shown bellow.

Hi, @Srinivas K Singadi and @Hugo Antunes!
The solution You are reffering to is with Autocomplete Richwidget. Somehow I do not have it in my environment and I do not know how to get it.
So this is the reason I am using plugin from forge: https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/494/search-and-autocomplete
Unfortunately my environment does not have Autocomplete Server actions, that is the main reason, why i started asking!
Have you tried to do this?
Vemp Temp, can you not add the server actions from the dependencies?
Go to Manage Dependencies (click on the plug icon) and then just select these actions under the RichWidgets component.
Hi, @Hanno!
Thanks for the reply. I following ServerActions availiable:
I suppose, that it should be "Open" action?! But how to finish that, av got no idea! It shows list when i´m typing, but I cannot select anything from the list.
Right, I getting bit confused now! Everybody are referring to Richwidgets component, but where is mine then?
You have to add the actions as references if they are not visible in your project.
If you are not sure what I am referring to, please see this link that explains with a few images: https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/44153/how-can-i-add-or-create-reference/#Post159687

Bit more detailed explanation now:
If i am searching everything is fine, I can find what I am searching:
View after search:
But after I save:
My save action looks like that:
