I have an input box 'CP' and an autocomplete 'TOWN'

Hi Cholet,   

  

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.   

  

You can set the input value to the autocomplete dataSource by converting the string data to the JSON object. Refer to the following code example:  

 

[cs] 

public JsonResult text(string data) 

        { 

            var userData = new UserData() { text = data }; 

            UserData[] arr = new UserData[] { userData }; 

            string json_data = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(arr); 

            return Json(json_data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); 

        } 

 

We have added the input value to the autocomplete dataSource by using the button click event.   

Refer to the following code example:   

 

[script] 

function onclick() { 

        var data = $("#input").val(); 

        $.ajax({ 

            url: "/Home/text", 

 

            data: { data: data }, 

 

            type: 'POST', 

 

            dataType: "json", 

 

            success: function (result) { 

                var data1 = JSON.parse(result); 

                var obj = $('#selectcar').data("ejAutocomplete"); 

                obj.model.dataSource.push(data1[0]); 

                obj.option("dataSource", obj.model.dataSource); 

                obj.option("fields", { text: "text" }); 

            } 

        }); 

    } 

 

Refer to the following sample:
