sessionID (required) - string 

setViewOrder 

Sets the sorting order for results. 

viewOrder (required) - string: null or comma delimited list of attributes each proceeded with + for ascending order or - for descending order. For example: 

—score — sort results based on the descending relevancy (default) 

+title, —score — sort results by title first, score second. 

setCategory

category (required) - string: current category level; if not set, the search is not restricted by category. For example, category=Internal:Engineering:Java 

setSearchAll 

Specifies whether to serach in the current category only, or in all the sub-categories. Default value is true.

setFirstHit 

setFirstHit takes a string input. Sets the starting hit for search results. In other words, start from 1, start from 11 and so forth. It corresponds to the setFirstHit() method in the Search API. Results are returned from this hit. This is an optional tag. Alternately you can use setPage and setViewHits. 

fromHit (required) - integer 

setViewHits 

Sets the maximum number of hits returned. 

viewHits (required) - integer - dynamic attribute 

setQuery

page (required) - integer - dynamic attribute 

setQueryLanguage 

Sets the query language. 

ql - Can be one of: 

search: The default Search query language. Searches documents or the taxonomy. 

taxonomy-basic: Used for requesting branches or parts of the taxonomy. 

schema-basic: Queries the Search schema. 

url: Retrieves RDs by URL (scope=url). 

ql (required) - string 

setCriteria 

Sets the query string in a list format. Useful in advanced search. 

The list should have an operand, operator and a value.The list of valid operator’s are defined in the SearchContext API. The operand can be a schema field. 

The user can bypass this tag and just use the setQuery tag directly by converting a complex query into the syntax that the search engine requires. 

The setCriteria tag is a wrapper for the setScope(list) method in the searchContext API. This method basically parses the list and converts it into a string. For example, author CONTAINS xyz.  

Either this value has to be set or else setQuery has to be set. 

criteria (required) - string - dynamic attribute
