Need help displaying OwnerID and OwnerName in Constellation Autocomplete

I need the Autocomplete control to display both OwnerID and OwnerName, and when a user selects an entry, only the Owner property should be set with the selected OwnerID. This behavior works correctly in applications built with the older Theme Cosmos UI, but the same property configuration does not work as expected in a Constellation application.

Has anyone implemented this successfully in Constellation or found an equivalent configuration approach? Please let me know.

easiest way is to add a use/add a property in the datapage call which is used to render the dropdown control

The reference image is from the Cosmos theme. I need the exact configuration in Constellation—could you suggest how I can achieve this?

Hello @VENKATASAITEJAP

Please note that there is no out-of-the-box (OOTB) solution available to achieve this configuration.

However, we have implemented a workaround that enables the display of values from multiple columns within the table while copying only a single value to the clipboard.

For more details, please refer to the attached document.

Note: Please exercise caution when using this approach, as the declare expression will be triggered every time any minor or major data manipulation occurs within the data object.

An alternative approach is to configure the Response DT in the List Data Page to populate the display field with a concatenated result. However, this method did not produce the intended level of accuracy.

Hope this info help.

Thank you

As a general comment; try to achieve the same outcome instead of focusing on a 1-to-1 replacement.

The best way is to implement this is a proper search and select pattern. A custom drop-down control with lots of information is really hard to get WCAG compliant.
