About This Webpart

The Essentials Search Bar webpart provides a seamless entry point for search experiences on SharePoint pages. It functions by writing user search queries directly into the page URL parameters, allowing companion webparts—such as Essentials Search Results and Essentials Search Filters—to read the query and dynamically display relevant results. Packed with features like search suggestions, auto-focus, and customizable button labels, it delivers an intuitive user experience.
