Web Search
Elexess web search helps you find electronic components across dozens of suppliers. Enter a part number to see results as suppliers respond.
Search Modes
Streaming (Default)
Results appear as each supplier responds. You'll see a progress indicator for each supplier:
- Green — Supplier returned results
- Gray — Supplier returned no results
- Red — Supplier encountered an error
- Spinning — Still waiting for response
Non-Streaming
All results are returned at once after every supplier has responded. Useful when you need a complete dataset.
Search Controls
The search UI supports additional controls to refine results quickly:
- Stocked only: Hide rows with zero stock
- No MOQ: Keep only offers that can satisfy your entered quantity at their lowest price break
- No cache: Force fresh supplier queries (Pro and Enterprise only)
- Currency: Choose EUR, USD or GBP for displayed prices
You can also disable specific suppliers and manufacturers in the results view to focus on relevant sources.
