Hello Magento Friends,
Today, we’ll delve into enhancing Magento 2 admin forms by integrating the UI-Select component with a search filter, providing administrators with a seamless and efficient user experience.
Magento 2 utilizes UI components extensively throughout its admin interface to ensure a consistent and intuitive user experience. UI-Select is one such component that allows users to select options from a dropdown list. While the default UI-Select component is powerful, adding a search filter can greatly enhance its usability, especially when dealing with large datasets. Administrators can quickly locate and select options from large datasets using the search filter, enhancing productivity and efficiency.
To incorporate the UI-Select component with a search filter into a Magento 2 admin form, follow these steps:
