You can customize the behavior of predictive search with the [Search & Discovery app](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/search-and-discovery) from Shopify.

{% hint style="info" %}
Predictive search isn't available in all languages. See the [complete list of supported languages](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/ajax/reference/predictive-search?shpxid=e7a69a3f-9448-4E0E-C1BA-A29185925080#supported-languages).

{% hint style="info" %}
The default fields searched on are 'title', 'product\_type', 'variants.title', and 'vendor'.&#x20;
