Autocomplete Machine Name views filter not working.

Created on 13 September 2023, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

If you choose the Autocomplete selection type for a view filter (exposed or not), the term id value is still used instead of the machine_name in the resulting views query.

The Dropdown selection type seems to work fine.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a view.
2. Reference the Taxonomy Term entity through your entity reference field to create a relationship.
3. Add a "Machine Name" filter, using that relationship.
4. If not exposed, configure the filter to use a specific term via the autocomplete field.
5. If exposed, use the exposed filter widget to select a term via the autocomplete field.

In my tests, I am noticing that the autocomplete text input is showing the term ID in parenthesis as a normal taxonomy term autocomplete filter would. I am also seeing seeing this in my preview of the query:

WHERE ((taxonomy_term_field_data_media__field_dua_document_type.machine_name = '22'))

I do have this core patch installed, https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3347343 ✨ Continuation Add Views EntityReference filter to be available for all entity reference fields Needs work , and I thought they might be conflicting. However, I think the problem continues even if I remove that core patch.

My app has a lot of moving parts, so I wouldn't be surprised if this problem is unique to my situation. Could someone else confirm or reject that this is happening to them as well?
