Search Configuration: Show Progress

RyanSFO-OracleMay 2 2023

Are there any good examples to follow for showing the progress when using a Search Configuration? I have a search page that is reading through a few thousand text blobs. It takes roughly 7 seconds to bring back 15 results, which isn't awful, but there is no indication to the user that it's doing anything when they hit enter.

I don't see an obvious way to know that the user pressed enter and I'm waiting for results (the Search Source doesn't let me add a dynamic action, which is what I was expecting to do). I'd like to at least show a dialog that search is in progress.

Using Apex 22.2.4 in OCI. Thanks!

For reference, my search does the following:

select
af.file_id,af.file_name
, utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(dbms_lob.substr(af.binary_file_content)) as file_content
, bytes_to_size(af.file_size) as file_size
, a.folder_name, a.archive_id
from archive_file af
inner join archive a on a.archive_id = af.archive_id
where af.binary_file_content is not null
