          The searcher defines the way the field is searched in Jira. For example, com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.customfieldtypes:grouppickersearcher. The search UI (basic search and JQL search) will display different operations and values for the field, based on the field searcher. You must specify a searcher that is valid for the field type, as listed below (abbreviated values shown):

          • cascadingselect: cascadingselectsearcher
          • datepicker: daterange
          • datetime: datetimerange
          • float: exactnumber or numberrange
          • grouppicker: grouppickersearcher
          • importid: exactnumber or numberrange
          • labels: labelsearcher
          • multicheckboxes: multiselectsearcher
          • multigrouppicker: multiselectsearcher
          • multiselect: multiselectsearcher
          • multiuserpicker: userpickergroupsearcher
          • multiversion: versionsearcher
          • project: projectsearcher
          • radiobuttons: multiselectsearcher
          • readonlyfield: textsearcher
          • select: multiselectsearcher
          • textarea: textsearcher
          • textfield: textsearcher
          • url: exacttextsearcher
          • userpicker: userpickergroupsearcher
          • version: versionsearcher

          If no searcher is provided, the field isn't searchable. However, Forge custom fields have a searcher set automatically, so are always searchable.
