Changelog ObjectType does not populate with q filter

[sdktr]

NetBox version

v3.0.0

Python version

3.8

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the filter tab of: https://demo.netbox.dev/extras/changelog/
2. Click 'object type filter'
3. Enter search query: ipam

Expected Behavior

Result of the dropdown is filtered to IPAM types

Observed Behavior

No results are displayed. The workaround is to first manually scroll down untill the list is fully populated. After that it can be searched through.

This is a general issue with API-backed select fields it seems. I thought we had fixed this recently, but I've confirmed it remains an issue. The selection list does automatically expand when the user reaches the end, however searching for an option that has not yet been loaded is broken.

Disregard this; I wasn't quite paying attention while testing earlier. Seems this may just be a changelog bug.

This actually looks like the changelog endpoint is not properly filtering using the q filter.

/api/extras/content-types/?brief=true&q=ipam

Returns all entries

[DanSheps]

  q = django_filters.CharFilter(
        method='search',
        label='Search',
    )

    def search(self, queryset, name, value):
        if not value.strip():
            return queryset
        return queryset.filter(
            Q(app_label__icontains=value || model__icontains=value)
        )

Will probably fix this, will do some testing

That may be part of it, but not all of it. There's also an issue with how APISelect is handling pagination, so a similar issue occurs when the user reaches the bottom of a list.

I would say this one is specific to changelog though.

I think that one is #7081, I will add you onto that one. Gonna take this one as I already have the filter fix.
