Next.js build errorNext.js: “useSearchParams() should be wrapped in a suspense boundary”

Why the build fails, and the fix

1. 01

   A component reads useSearchParams() with no Suspense around it

   “Reading search parameters through useSearchParams() without a Suspense boundary will opt the entire page into client-side rendering.” Next.js, Missing Suspense boundary with useSearchParams

   Without a Suspense boundary, reading the query string would push the whole page to render in the browser, so the build stops. Wrap the smallest part that needs it, as in Next.js’s example:

   'use client'
   
   import { useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation'
   import { Suspense } from 'react'
   
   function Search() {
     const searchParams = useSearchParams()
   
     return <input placeholder="Search..." />
   }
   
   export function Searchbar() {
     return (
       // You could have a loading skeleton as the `fallback` too
       <Suspense>
         <Search />
       </Suspense>
     )
   }

2. 02

   The page should render on every request

   “To make the route dynamically rendered, use the connection function in a Server Component (e.g. the Page or a wrapping Layout).” Next.js, Missing Suspense boundary with useSearchParams

   If the page depends on the request anyway, make the route dynamic. Next.js says to call connection() in a Server Component page or layout. Setting dynamic in a Client Component page has no effect. On a Next.js version from before connection() existed, Next.js’s docs use export const dynamic = 'force-dynamic' in a Server Component page.tsx or layout.tsx instead.

   import { connection } from 'next/server'
   
   export default async function Page() {
     await connection()
     return <div>...</div>
   }

3. 03

   The whole page became a Client Component

   “Consider making the Page a Server Component again and isolating Client-only code (that uses useSearchParams) into child Client Components.” Next.js, Missing Suspense boundary with useSearchParams

   A page.tsx that starts with 'use client' makes the whole page a Client Component. Next.js suggests making it a Server Component again and keeping the code that uses useSearchParams in child Client Components.

Checked against the vendor’s docs on November 1, 2026: Next.js docs: Missing Suspense boundary with useSearchParams.
