Arguments #

Optional: #

• from: the offset from the first result you want to fetch. Usually used with the size argument
• scroll: create a new forward-only result cursor. This option must be set with a time duration, at the end of which the cursor is destroyed. If set, a cursor identifier named scrollId will be returned in the results. This cursor can then be moved forward using the scrollProfiles API action
• size: the maximum number of profiles returned in one response page
• lang: specify the query language to use. By default, it's elasticsearch but koncorde can also be used.
  Available since 2.14.1

Body properties #

Optional: #

• roles: an array of role identifiers. Restrict the search to profiles linked to the provided roles

  Deprecated since 2.14.1
  .

• query: search query using the ElasticSearch Query DSL or the Koncorde Filters DSL syntax.

If the body is left empty, the result will return all available profiles.

Response #

• hits: array of object. Each object describes a found profile:
  • _id: profile identifier
