Hi,

I have an application with more than 2k users and the users that want to search for others can’t because the list takes too long to load.  
Does anyone know how I can make it so that users only appear when the logged in user types the name in the text input?

Thanks

Hi @ramonroca,

I think you are using a Simple List right? As far as I’m aware you can’t hide the results before entering a value to the input in Simple List. But you can do this with a Custom List and a Input component.

Thank you
