The flow for API calls to show the shopper Autocomplete is as follows:

-
As a shopper types into the search bar, use our Suggest API to receive query suggestions.
-
As a shopper types into the search bar, use our Autocomplete API to fetch products to display as a preview in the Autocomplete Module.
When a shopper hovers over a different rendered query suggestion, simply pass the value to the Autocomplete API to get and render product results for the hovered suggestion.
