request for more documentation on the /search endpoint

[jellomoat]

Hi! Could you please provide more documentation on the /search endpoint here?

It would be especially helpful to have a list of valid parameters/more examples of how to structure queries for common use cases, eg filtering by template and combining multiple filters. I was only able to figure out syntax for filtering through trial and error and reviewing GitHub issues in the main uwazi repo.

Hi @jellomoat,

Thanks for reaching out about your need regarding the documentation. We are currently in the process of rethinking/revamping the Uwazi documentation and providing more information about the API is definitely in our plans.
However, I can not tell how long this would take, so I am wondering how to best support you in the meantime.
If you could share some more context, we might be able to put something together that addresses your specific needs.
For example:

• What are you trying to achieve using the API?
• What kind of information are you interested in getting through it?
• How complex is your template/filter structure?
• Do you use a self-hosted version of Uwazi or one that we host?

Looking forward to getting this sorted for you!
