Search cards in Vue Kanban component

16 Mar 20235 minutes to read

You can search the cards in Kanban by using the query property.

In the following sample, the searching operation starts as soon as you start typing characters in the external text box. It will search the cards based on the Id and Summary using the search query with contains operator.

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <table>
      <tbody>
        <td style="width: 200px">
          <ejs-textbox
            ref="SearchText"
            id="search_text"
            placeholder="Enter search text"
            showClearButton="true"
          ></ejs-textbox>
        </td>
        <td>
          <ejs-button
