Search Bar Function

Hi, 

 

I'm looking for a way to be able to search on a concatenated column (name, dob, postcode) and have the potential results appear in a drop down as i am typing. Basically, the way that google works.

 

I've played around with a few custom visuals and they either show the whole list of results and then filter down as I type or dont show results at all. 

 

Thanks

Thank you, @Arul. I have yes, this is probably the closest I'm going to get to what i would like to achieve. Ideally, id like to drop down/list to have no results initially and then as they type the results then appear but will have to go with this for now! Thanks,

@rricketts ,

Have you tried search option in the default slicer by clicking three dots of the visual?
