Conduit application search
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

It is possible to search for Conduit methods belonging to an application, but this is done with text rather than typeaheads. This should probably use typeaheads. Actually, I imagine that this search is just doing string matching based on the Conduit method name, which is prefixed by the application name. If this is the case, Conduit methods should probably have a getParentApplication() method.

I'm not sure where you want this typeahead?

I'm not really sure this is actually useful given that every method is now named <application>.whatever and you can search by substring.

Let's just remove it instead?

Remove this field from the query UI and search engine, since it's weird and doesn't really do anything above and beyond what the field above it does:

If a use case arises, we can add it back properly (with a typeahead) later, but I can't come up with any reason why this is useful.
