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.

This section applies to Open Storefront Framework (OSF) and Storefront Classic.

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

See Use the REST APIs for more information.
