class GridFieldAddExistingAutocompleter implements GridField_HTMLProvider, GridField_ActionProvider, GridField_DataManipulator, GridField_URLHandler (View source)

This class is is responsible for adding objects to another object's has_many and many_many relation, as defined by the {@link RelationList} passed to the {@link GridField} constructor.

Objects can be searched through an input field (partially matching one or more fields).

Selecting from the results will add the object to the relation.

Often used alongside {@link GridFieldDeleteAction} for detaching existing records from a relationship.

For easier setup, have a look at a sample configuration in {@link GridFieldConfig_RelationEditor}.
