The ComboBox has built-in support to filter data items when allowFiltering is enabled. The filter
operation starts as soon as you start typing characters in the component.
To display filtered items in the popup, filter the required data and return it to the ComboBox via updateData method by using the filtering event.
The following sample illustrates how to query the data source and pass the data to the ComboBox
through the updateData method in filtering event.
[Class-component]
// import DataManager related classes
import { Query } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
import { ComboBoxComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-dropdowns';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
export default class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
// define the filtering data
this.searchData = [
{ Index: "s1", Country: "California" }, { Index: "s2", Country: "Florida" },
{ Index: "s3", Country: "Alaska" }, { Index: "s4", Country: "Georgia" }
];
// maps the appropriate column to fields property
this.fields = { text: "Country", value: "Index" };
// sort the resulted items
this.sortOrder = 'Ascending';
this.onFiltering = this.onFiltering.bind(this);
}
// filtering event handler to filter a Country
onFiltering(args) {
let query = new Query();
// frame the query based on search string with filter type.
query = (args.text !== "") ? query.where("Country", "startswith", args.text, true) : query;
// pass the filter data source, filter query to updateData method.
args.updateData(this.searchData, query);
}
render() {
return (
// specifies the tag for render the ComboBox component
<ComboBoxComponent id="comboelement" popupHeight="250px" fields={this.fields} filtering={this.onFiltering} allowFiltering={true} sortOrder={this.sortOrder} dataSource={this.searchData} placeholder="Select a country"/>);
}

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('sample'));When filtering the list items, you can set the limit for character count to raise remote request and fetch filtered data on the ComboBox. This can be done by manual validation within the filter event handler.
In the following example, the remote request does not fetch the search data until the search key contains three characters.

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('sample'));Data items can be filtered either with or without case sensitivity using the DataManager. This can be done
by passing the fourth optional parameter of the where clause.
The following example shows how to perform case-sensitive filter.
[Class-component]

super(props);
// bind the DataManager instance to dataSource property
this.searchData = new DataManager({
adaptor: new ODataV4Adaptor,
crossDomain: true,
url: 'https://services.odata.org/V4/Northwind/Northwind.svc/Customers'
});
// maps the appropriate column to fields property
this.fields = { text: 'ContactName', value: 'CustomerID' };
// bind the Query instance to query property
this.query = new Query().select(['ContactName', 'CustomerID']).take(6);
// sort the resulted items
this.sortOrder = 'Ascending';
this.onFiltering = this.onFiltering.bind(this);
}
// filtering event handler to filter a customer
onFiltering(e) {
// load overall data when search key empty.
if (e.text === '') {
e.updateData(this.searchData);
}
else {
let query = new Query().select(["ContactName", "CustomerID"]);
// enable the case sensitive filtering by passing false to 4th parameter.
query = (e.text !== '') ? query.where('ContactName', 'contains', e.text, false) : query;
e.updateData(this.searchData, query);
}
}
