Additional Information
This is the intended search behavior for maps and apps. Additional details can be found in the following resources: - https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/latest/configure-widgets/search-widget.htm#ESRI_SECTION2_CB0AA4F405F34620A9920B6C29B3CEDC - https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/mapping/searching-for-features-in-maps-and-apps If the data is stored in a hosted feature layer, enabling a full-text index allows the search suggestions to match individual words. Without this index, suggestions are limited to records that start with the input text. However, when pressing Enter to execute the search, the system applies a contains match, and results are returned even if the search term does not begin with the field value.Steps to Reproduce
