Hi everyone,
I’m using VisualEditor.DynamicPickList to populate a design attribute picklist for a Lightning Web Component in the Lightning App Builder.
Implementation overview:
- Records are fetched using Apex from a custom object.
- The results are returned via VisualEditor.DynamicPickList.
- The picklist displays correctly in the component properties panel.
Observed behavior:
- After the values are loaded, Salesforce uses its built-in search functionality to filter the picklist.
- The search appears to be case-sensitive (for example, “Example Survey” vs “example survey”).
- Users must enter the exact capitalization to find a value.
What I tried:
- Normalizing values in Apex (lowercase/uppercase).
- Searching Salesforce documentation and Trailblazer Community posts for information on case-insensitive support.
I wasn’t able to find any official documentation confirming whether:
- Case-insensitive search is supported for VisualEditor.DynamicPickList, or
- The search behavior can be customized or overridden.
Question:
Is this case-sensitive search behavior a known Salesforce limitation, or is there a supported way to make the search case-insensitive for dynamic picklists in the Lightning App Builder?
Any guidance, confirmation, or workaround suggestions would be appreciated.

Or i think u can do this as well..
Since the search only finds exactly what is in the label, you can change the label in your Apex code to include both versions.
- What you do: Change the label to look like this: Example Survey (example survey).
- Result: If the user types "Example" or "example," it will show up. It’s a bit ugly, but it works immediately without extra complex coding.
