Hi,
- You don’t have to subscribe to the commercial features of Elasticserach to use it as a search engine in Jmix.
- Currently, it is better to use TextField to search through the menu.
Here is some info on how to do this: Menu search
We are also working on implementing this as an out-of-the-box feature: Search in main menu · Issue #1244 · jmix-framework/jmix · GitHub
Regards,
Alex
