    Hello how are you?

    My site users visit a page containing a general report daily and use the search field to filter searches related to their full name (first and last name).

    I did a search and found nothing on this subject, so I opened this ticket.

    Is it possible to save in the search field "user name" and leave it saved whenever the user opens the same page every day? They were asked not to always type the same thing in the search field and their name would already be saved to do the daily monitoring of the results in the table.

    Is it possible to save something in the field to search?

    Hi Renato

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    It can't be done in the way you've shown me in the gif, but you can try using column filters, using placeholders. 

    If you go to the column settings Filtering tab you will see a field Predefined values, there you can add these placeholders 

    %CURRENT_USER_FIRST_NAME%

    %CURRENT_USER_LAST_NAME%

    in this way the table will be automatically filtered based on the first and last name of the currently logged in user.

    Hi, thanks for the reply.

    I really tested it and it is a solution, but unfortunately my users do not need to register to access the table, so in this case these Predefined values do not work.

    Would you have any other type of Predefined values to use for users who are not logged in, but access your name daily in the search field of the table?

    Hi Renato

    Unfortunately this is only possible if the users log in. Logged-out users have user ID: 0, so there is no way to filter per user if they're not logged in.

    Do let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist.
