    <header>
    <div class="toggle-search-bar">
      <button class="sidebar-toggle" onclick="toggleSidebar()"><i class="fa fa-bars"></i></button>
      <div class="search-bar">
        <input type="text" placeholder="Search">
        <button type="submit"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </header>

    removed the div tag class name search-bar outside of the sidebar-toggle and placed outside the div tag

    <header>
    <div class="toggle-search-bar">
      <button class="sidebar-toggle" onclick="toggleSidebar()"><i class="fa fa-bars"></i></button>
    </div>
<div class="search-bar">
        <input type="text" placeholder="Search">
        <button type="submit"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></button>
      </div>
  </header>

    Your trouble came from the flex usage. When a parent container have flex, childs are not automatically expand full-width anymore as a any block element will usually do.

    Instead, you have to specify that a given item in a flex container should expand (or shrink).

    I have fixed your code by removing useless .toggle-search-bar (element and style) and adding two rules to .search-bar to tell browser to expand it and align content to the right.

    function toggleSidebar() {
      var sidebar = document.querySelector('.sidebar');
      sidebar.classList.toggle('sidebar-collapsed');
    }
    body {
  font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

header {
  background-color: #e9e9e9;
  color: #fff;
  padding: 10px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

.sidebar-toggle {
  background: none;
  border: none;
  padding: 0;
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 24px;
  color: #333;
  margin-right: 10px;
}

.search-bar {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  flex: 1;
  justify-content: right;
}

.search-bar input[type="text"] {
  padding: 10px;
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
  border-radius: 4px;
}

.search-bar button {
  background: none;
  border: none;
  padding: 10px;
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 18px;
  color: #333;
  height: 100%;
}

.search-bar button i {
  margin-right: 5px;
}

/* Sidebar styles */
.sidebar {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 200px;
  height: 100%;
  background-color: #333;
  color: #fff;
  transition: width 0.3s ease;
  overflow: hidden;
}

.sidebar-collapsed {
  width: 0;
}

.sidebar nav ul {
  list-style-type: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  display: block;
  transition: opacity 0.3s ease;
  opacity: 1;
}

.nav-collapsed {
  opacity: 0;
  pointer-events: none;
}
