How to filter out by multiple fields in SEARCH API?

Hi Ecaterina,

I haven't used the search API in a bit, but I believe that your filter would look like this.

"type::metadata||tags::E69D3813-F485-4971-B917-407B1037058A"

The "||" is just a delimiter and doesn't imply any type of boolean logic.  Filters always use AND boolean logic, unless you specify multiple values for a field.

For example, "type::metadata||tags::tag1,tag2,tag3".  In this case the "," is used to delimit the values for tags, which implies OR logic.  In other words type == "metadata" AND tags contains "tag1" OR "tag2" OR "tag3".

If you needed to use some other boolean logic, like an OR, you can do that through the Query param which supports more complex Solr queries.
