Originally created by @991jo on GitHub (Nov 7, 2023).

Originally assigned to: @arthanson on GitHub.

NetBox version

v3.6.4

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

The current global and the ASN quick search should return results independent of whether a user searches for "AS64496" or "64496".
Currently only the later returns results.

Use case

This should reduce errors and increase the search hit rate for ASNs.
Many other systems return ASNs as "AS64496" and the user simply copies that and finds no results in NetBox.
NetBox itself even formats the ASN Objects in the global search as "AS64496" instead of "64496".

@abhi1693 commented on GitHub (Nov 9, 2023):

I do not think this is possible to implement. The value in question is an interger field vs the object representation (suffixed with AS). The search cache adds the actual value rather than the string representation of the object, so a user must search for the value as 64496 only. You could however try to use the ends with type instead of partial match to workaround this issue.

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Dec 7, 2023):

We could enable this by extending SearchIndex to allow passing instance attributes in addition to fields, and adding a name property on ASN that returns e.g. "AS1234". Then, the string "AS1234" would be cached alongside the integer 1234.
