Enter q as a Standard HTTP Query Parameter with the Query as a Value

Many APIs have special handling for the q query parameter according to different schemes, such as mongoDB query/SCIM/open search, and so on.

The REST Adapter treats q as a standard HTTP query parameter and treats the query expression as a string value. For example:

  • https://host.example.com:7004/resource?q=AssetNumber=AP10001

  • GET /ccadmin/v1/products?q=orderLimit lt &maxLimit and startTime gt &startTime

  • https://mysite.example.com/services/rest/connect/v1.3/queryResults?query=SELECT Contact from contract where contact.organization.name=&OrgName;

According to standard HTTP, the query parameter in this case is q and the value is AssetNumber=AP1000.

Therefore, you are required to pass the query expression as a value to the query parameter with the name q.
