Autocomplete Customizing
We have an autocomplete control which is configured on a data page which calls service to fetch data based on the control input. The service gets timed out after multiple consecutive calls and as a result The control stops responding. Admit it's a service issue but we are trying to customise the control so that on down/enter key press only the input is passed to the data page. Restricting min chars is not feasible as the input can be anything between 3 to 10 chars

Hi ,
I dont think this could be achieved using OOTB autocomplete control since pega_ui_autocomplete js is a final rule.
You might want to create a custom control which executes only on click of down/ enter.
Alternatively you can source the autocomplete from a page list which copies data from a data page and use a refresh strategy accordingly. That might reduce the overhead.
Hope that helps.
