I have the following data inside an index at Search API. The name and slug fields are TextFields.

Document Id         name                slug
5946158883012608    Configurations      configurations
4820258976169984    Customers           customers
6227633859723264    Sites               sites

I'm trying a lot of options of querystrings and can't get the right row.

My last tries:

index.search('config')
index.search('~config')
index.search('name:~config')
index.search('slug:~config')

If I try: index.search('customers') I receive one row. But if a remove the last s, then I receive no row.

Can someone please explain me why?

Regards,

Armando

Just to be sure, are you using `TextField` or `AtomField`? The above behaviour is expected with `AtomField`, but the above queries should work with `TextField` because Atom fields are not tokenized. – atimothee Nov 11 '16 at 13:55
Indeed, I'm trying to implement an autocomplete feature. I'll try it. – armandomiani Nov 11 '16 at 14:02

Hey! I'm on the App Engine search team. Do give `index.search('slug:~customer')` a try--I'm not sure if it will work, but it might. We also may have other functionality that could help with your autocomplete use case. I'll check and find out more. – Will Hayworth Nov 11 '16 at 19:12
@WillHayworth I had already tried this, without success. The atimothee solution has worked well. ;) ty – armandomiani Nov 12 '16 at 09:17
