Target page used to have search. The new one 8.8.2 doesn't have search. Can we have it back?

If a customer has a Rate of Resize set to 2-Medium then Turbonomic will create an action to take it 25% of the way to the optimal value. And this jump (let’s say 32GB –> 34 GB memory) appears in the Action and Details. The optimal value is 8GB ...
