    Hi, thank you for contacting JotForm support.

    Could you please provide us with more details about your concern. May we know where do you want the search would be? Will it be on your form, submission inbox/sheets, or on your reports?

    We look forward to your response.

    Hi, thank you for contacting JotForm support.

    Unfortunately, there is no current option to link your webpage's search bar to your form submissions. As a workaround, you can create a Grid Listing report and embed it on your website. Kindly refer to the guide below for your reference:
    Guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/105-How-to-Create-a-Grid-Listing-Report

    The Grid Listing Report has also a custom search bar where users can search for custom keywords from the submissions.

    I hope this will help. Let us know if you have further questions.
