@Swapnil_Ghorpade Could you please be more specific with your questions?

Are you using Search UI for this?

I don't think I understand the question. Why would you expect the search results to refresh without submitting the search form?

@JasonStoltz yes I'm using search-ui.  
is it possible to call search api to get default result on clearing the search box input as {query: ""} ?

@Swapnil_Ghorpade I'm curious what the root of your problem is, it doesn't seem like something you should be running into. That being said, you can of course use the `setSearchTerm` action to execute a new query [https://github.com/elastic/search-ui/blob/master/ADVANCED.md#actions](https://github.com/elastic/search-ui/blob/master/ADVANCED.md#actions).

```auto
setSearchTerm("")

```
