How to add search option to ColumnParameter or MultiColumnParameter in python based node?

[hagay_finiti]

Hi,
I’m trying to add search option to ColumnParameter or MultiColumnParameter just like in column filter node - in the configuration of custom node that I’m creating.
I didn’t see any option of it in the documentation - is there any attribute I need to add?

my configuration:
source _cols = knext.MultiColumnParameter(
label=“Source columns”,
description=“Select the source columns”,
port_index=0,
column_filter= None,
since_version=None
)

screenshot of the current input ( MultiColumnParameter ):

column filter (that has the search option):

Thanks,
Hagay

Hi @hagay_finiti,

this is currently not possible (@bwilhelm can you confirm?). I created a ticket for it (AP-20885).

Hi all,

Correct. This is not possible right now. Adding search support for the MultiColumnParameter should be rather straightforward. For the ColumnParameter it’s a little more complicated because the base UI component does not support search yet.

Hello,
Thank you both for your answers.
Is there an option to notify me when this feature added?
thanks in advance,

We’ll most likely contact you here. Either way, you can also always double-check the changelog of a new version.
