FIltering results by User with core_v2_searchResult.List

I am currently building a widget which can view recent content for various applications by group (and or) by users amongst other facets. I had the basic structure working but when I wanted to add in the user filter, I hit up against a problem. There does not seems to be a piece of documentation which illustrates the exact format for this filter so I am mostly looking at what advanced search does and modifying that to suit my needs.

The filter parameter I am using us author::<userid> but it is not bringing back any results. If I remove the user filter I get all content. Does anyone have a idea where I am going wrong with the format, or maybe direct me to the documentation for programtic filters.

{
  Query: '*', 
  PageSize: 100, 
  Filters: 'author::2100||group::6', 
  Sort: 'date desc'
}

Thanks

typo fixed

Thanks Steven, it did feel like I was only a small step away from what I needed. Is there a document which details the search filters that I was missing?

Here's some slightly older documentation on Search Syntax that includes a link to a list of fields. This would still be valid for v11.

Thanks, that is helpful. The user filters works as expected too!

Thanks for the pointer to the docs on this Steven Heffner . I'm attempting to show content from the whole site, apart from a list of groups. What's the syntax for a filter like that? I've tried;

Filters: 'group::!3' Filters: 'group::-3' Filters: 'group::NOT 3' Filters: '!group::3'

None of these give me the result I'm after. Could you point me in the right direction please?

Hi Steven Heffner should I raise a support request to ask for assistance on this?

Had some good progress via a support ticket. Basically it isn't possible to exclude groups using the Filters parameter, but you can do it via the Query parameter like this;

#set($options = "%{ Query='NOT (group:7)', Filters='type::forum', PageSize=5, PageIndex=0, Sort='titlesort asc' }")

You can exclude multiple groups like this;

Query='NOT (group:7) NOT (group:3)'
