Tell us what you are trying to do?

I'm trying to see if it is possible to implement auto-suggest inte a views search field.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

No, I have searched and only found old threads in this forum...
Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no native feature to add a frontend filter with the auto-suggest function. I think its a good candidate for a feature request. You should file a new feature request for that using the following link:
=> https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/

However, if you want to implement auto-suggest for the dropdown select field that you added as frontend filters, please check the following related link that may help you:
