1. What is the nature and description of the request?

The customer is requesting an enhancement to the Templates page UI in Ansible Automation Platform 2.6. When a search term is entered in the Templates view, the results area becomes very small, making it difficult to view or interact with the returned job templates. The customer would like the results pane to automatically resize, expand, or allow manual adjustment so that search results are clearly visible without excessive scrolling.

This request aims to improve visibility and usability when filtering or searching for templates.

1. Why does the customer need this? (Business requirements)

• • The customer frequently searches for job templates to run automation workflows.

• • The current UI behavior significantly limits visibility of search results, slowing down operations and increasing the chance of selecting incorrect templates.

• • Reduced visibility directly impacts efficiency when triggering playbooks from the controller interface.

• • Improving the search results view would enhance operator productivity and reduce manual effort when navigating templates.

1. How would you like to achieve this? (Functional requirements)

• • When a search term is applied, the templates results panel should automatically resize or expand to show a larger, fully usable results area.

• • Alternatively (or additionally), the results container should be manually resizable by the user.

• • Ensure that the templates list remains fully visible and accessible regardless of applied filters.

• • Maintain consistent UI behavior across different screen sizes and view modes.

• • No change in backend functionality—UI improvement only.
