Get input data of Suggest Box in App Maker

Question

I have Suggest Box widget and I need to make suggestions based on several fields. App Maker allows only use 1 field for suggestions, so I need to implement custom "suggest" function.

I am binding to onInputChange(widget, event) to get current input, but there is no input data.

How can I retreive user's input in suggest box widget?

You can access Suggest Box widget input using event.srcElement.value:

function suggestBoxInputChange(widget, event)
{
  console.log(event.srcElement.value);
}
