Use the search REST APIs

Some search-related tasks cannot be done through the administration interface and can only be completed using the search REST APIs.

The following tasks must be completed through the REST APIs:

• Create and delete a searchable field ranking list
• Enable and disable cross-field matching
• Enable different types of partial matching
• Specify snippet sizes
• Select modules that sort search results as part of a relevance ranking strategy
• Configure locales, search term wildcards, and spelling dictionaries
