Can I disable a module from GlobalSearch using REST API or specific settings from the code?

There are two options,

you can include this in your vardefs.php 

'full_text_search' => false,

or

Add a file full_text_search_admin.php into the directory custom/Extension/modules/<MODULE>/Ext/Vardefs

<?php
$dictionary['MODULE']['full_text_search']=false;

Substitute your Module Name anywhere you see the word MODULE

Hi Jeff Bickart,

thank you for your feedback. I will do this that way ; I was wondering / hoping that I can do this with an API call.

Have a good day,

Fred
