Box search in panel filter for lookup or date columns

Hi, 

 

Could you help me please?

 

In a view of a list ...

 

Are there some manner to show the search box in a lookup column?

 

In a text column type text appears filter search box but not in lookup column or Date column.

 

Thank you,

    In SharePoint Online, by default, the search box is not available in the view of a list for Lookup or Date columns. However, you can use the "Filter" web part to add a search box for these column types. Here's how:

    1. Create a view of the list that includes the Lookup or Date column you want to filter.
    2. Edit the view and add a "Filter" web part.
    3. In the "Filter" web part, select the Lookup or Date column from the drop-down list.
    4. Set the "Filter type" to "Contains" or "Starts with".
    5. Save and publish the view.

    Now, a search box will be available in the view of the list for the selected Lookup or Date column, allowing users to filter the list based on the column values.
