-----------------------------------

             Summary: Add ability to scope search to specific Process Group 
instead of entire NiFi instance
                 Key: NIFI-15409
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-15409
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core UI
            Reporter: Naman Shukla
            Assignee: Naman Shukla


*Current Behavior:* The search feature located in the upper right corner of the 
NiFi UI currently searches across the entire NiFi instance, returning results 
from all process groups and nested levels.

*Requested Enhancement:* Add the ability to limit the scope of a search to a 
specific process group and its descendants, rather than always searching the 
entire NiFi instance.

*Use Case:* In large NiFi deployments with many process groups and hundreds or 
thousands of processors, users often need to find components within a specific 
section of their flow. Being able to search within just the current process 
group (and optionally its child groups) would:
 * Reduce noise in search results
 * Improve search performance for large instances
 * Help users navigate complex flows more efficiently
 * Make it easier to work on specific subsections of a dataflow

*Proposed Implementation:* Add a search scope option that allows users to 
choose between:
 # "Entire Instance" (current default behavior)
 # "Current Process Group" (search only within the currently open process group)

This could be implemented as a dropdown or filter option near the existing 
search box.
