Search Query

How to build a Search Query

1. Vocabulary
2. Fields
3. Operators

This API accepts the query parameter which is a search query combining one or more search clauses. Each search clause is made up of three parts structured as field : operator value. , e.g. name:="My cool store"

Vocabulary

• Field: attribute of the Store that is searched, e.g. the attribute name of the store.

• Operator: test that is performed on the data to provide a match, e.g. =. Each field has a default operator. If none operator follow the :, the default one is used.

• Value: the content of the attribute that is tested, e.g. the name of the store "My cool store".

Combine clauses with the conjunctions AND or OR, and negate the query with NOT.

Fields

Field	ValueType	Operators	Default	Description
type	collection	none	contains	An element is contained within type collection. e.g. type:"myType"
tag	collection	none	contains	An element is contained within tag collection. e.g. tag:"myTag"

idstore	string	none or =	=	text matching: the value match the idstore field. e.g. idstore:="myIdStore"
user.	string, numeric	none or =, >, <, >=, <=	=	concerns all fields inside user_properties. text matching or numerical comparison. e.g. user.myAttribute:="myValue"

Operators

Operator	Description
:	Default and mandatory operator. For type and tag fields, define that an element is contained within a collection.
=	The content of a string or a number is equal to the other.
>	A number is greater than another.
<	A number is smaller than another.
>=	A number is greater than or equal to another.
<=	A number is smaller than or equal to another.
AND	Return assets that match both clauses.
OR	Return assets that match either clauses.
NOT	Negates a search clause.

For compound clauses, you can use parentheses to group clauses together. For example: (type:"type1" OR type:"type2") AND tag:"hockey"

You can use NOT operator to negates a search clause. For example: not type:"type1"
