Search actions

Configure search actions to define how users can search for customers or objects within a View.

Overview

Search Actions define the available search methods for a View. Each Search Action appears as a separate tab in the search interface and connects to a specific endpoint on the IKO Server. This allows users to search using different criteria, such as BSN, name and date of birth, or address.

Each Search Action:

  • Corresponds to a single IKO Server connector endpoint.

  • Appears as a tab with its own search fields.

  • Can send additional query parameters to the connector endpoint.

Examples of search actions

  • BSN (search by Burgerservicenummer).

  • Surname and date of birth.

  • Address.

  • KVK number.
