Site Page - PNP Search Box web part - Syntax to use managed property
I've put the PnP-Search Box web part on a modern SP Page and would like to retrieve the text (search term) input from a user to launch a search using a managed property (RefinableString80).
When performing a manual search in a modern Document library using the search box at the top by specifying the managed property & search term as follows: RefinableStringi80:Feldspar, the search returns the expected results. When investigating the URL it shows the following format
...?view=7&q=RefinableString81%3AFeldspar .
When using the PnP-Search Box web part on a page I can't find a proper way to obtain the same result. I've tried multiple combinations, yet either the entered search term is not coming true or the URL syntax is different > see image.
How to configure the 'Parameter name' o/t PnP-SB web part to obtain the same URL syntax as described above?
Hello EricDeferm

Maybe it can help you, otherwise come back to me.
