Gutenberg-mobile: Link picker search does not work on WordPress.com Business or Jetpack sites

Created on 13 Oct 2020  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile

Describe the bug

Link picker search does not work on WordPress.com Business or Jetpack sites. (1m43s, 2m18s)

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open a WordPress.com or Jetpack site using WPAndroid 15.9-rc-1 or later.
  2. Create a new post using the block editor.
  3. Add some text and highlight one of the words.
  4. Tap the link icon in the editor toolbar.
  5. Search for a post or page on the site that you know exists.

Result: no results are shown for searches for existing content done via the link picker search if you are using a WordPress.com Business or Jetpack site. Tested with WordPress.com Business on 2020-10-07 and 2020-10-13 and also with Jetpack 9.0.1 WordPress 5.5.1.

Expected behavior

I expect searching for an existing post or page from within the link picker will produce results.

Because this is a new feature in 15.9 and this issue was found during 15.9 beta testing, @dratwas do you think you could have a look at this one? cc @Tug

This was due to a missing API mapping for Jetpack sites, and is now resolved. :tada: Thanks again for testing and reporting Sheri! :smiley:
