The Entity Autocomplete ID module enhances Drupal's default entity autocomplete functionality by enabling users to search and match entities based on their unique IDs, in addition to the conventional entity labels. If there is a match by ID, an extra result is prepended and shown first in the result list. Module provides a form element, an entity reference field widget, and allows for easy global enabling across all existing autocomplete fields.

How to use it:

  • On the entity form display configuration page, use the 'Autocomplete ID' widget on any entity reference fields.
  • Programmatically, you can use the 'entity_id_autocomplete' form render element type.
  • Alternatively, you can enable it globally for use in all autocomplete fields across the site. Don't forget to configure permissions if you want to restrict access by roles.
