Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Saved search - Default search name shows the report/user ID instead of report/user name

What is the root cause of that problem?

From: #48566
we are directly showing the query name which has report/user ID instead of report/user name here:

App/src/pages/Search/SearchTypeMenu.tsx

Line 103 in 2dc08e9

title: item.name,

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

1. first we need to check if the query name === query, that means query is not renamed by user and still has the default name
2. if the query name === query, then we need to use same logic in SearchUtils.getSearchHeaderTitle as we are using for search header title, here queryJSON will be build with SearchUtils.buildSearchQueryJSON for the item

            let title = item.name;

            if (title === item.query) {
                const jsonQuery = SearchUtils.buildSearchQueryJSON(item.query);
                title = jsonQuery ? SearchUtils.getSearchHeaderTitle(jsonQuery, personalDetails, cardList, reports, taxRates) : item.query;
            }

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

default search name shows ID instead of name

What is the root cause of that problem?

when saving a search query, we use the raw query as name

App/src/libs/actions/Search.ts

Line 55 in 0c618ac

const saveSearchName = name ?? queryJSON?.inputQuery ?? '';

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Use getSearchHeaderTitle to get a more user friendly string. so the update code will be

    const saveSearchName = name ?? SearchUtils.getSearchHeaderTitle(queryJSON, personalDetails, cardList, reports, taxRates) ?? '';

Triggered auto assignment to Contributor-plus team member for initial proposal review - @jayeshmangwani (External)

[luacmartins]

I already put up a PR with a slightly different solution since we shouldn't update the actual saved search name (we wanna be able to dynamically get those if the display name changes, etc)

[jaydamani]

@luacmartins That PR could break the rename functionality. If you rename a search, it would still show the query instead of the name.

My changes only affects when name provided by user is undefined
const saveSearchName = name ?? SearchUtils.getSearchHeaderTitle(queryJSON, personalDetails, cardList, reports, taxRates) ?? '';

Also, I think your PR partially implements proposal by @ishpaul777
Fully implementing it should fix the rename issue.

[luacmartins]

Ah yes, I noticed that as well. I updated the PR and I agree that in the end the solution was quite similar to @ishpaul777's solution. I'll make sure that we compensate them for the solution.

[luacmartins]

Fixed on staging

[jayeshmangwani]
