RELATED FEEDBACK

Allow autocomplete to work with email addresses.

At the moment, an autocomplete index does not tokenize the "@" in email addresses. So when using an autocomplete search on an email address field, the search breaks as soon as the "@" is entered. I started a thread in the community about this very issue. https://developer.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/mongo-search-autocomplete-type/10561/5

    You can achieve this functionality by using setting the autocomplete field mapping's `analyzer` field to *lucene.keyword* (see example ( https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/atlas-search/field-types/autocomplete-type/#try-an-example-for-the-fts-field-type-type ) ) or a *custom analyzer which uses the* *uaxUrlEmail tokenizer* ( https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/atlas-search/analyzers/tokenizers/#std-label-uaxUrlEmail-tokenizer-ref ) *.*
