query #

The search query to apply to users content, using ElasticSearch Query DSL or the Koncorde Filters DSL syntax.

Available since 7.4.8

This method also supports the Koncorde Filters DSL to match documents by passing the lang argument with the value koncorde.
Koncorde filters will be translated into an Elasticsearch query.

Koncorde bool operator and regexp clause are not supported for search queries.

If left empty, the result will return all available users.

options #

Property	Type (default)	Description
`queuable`	boolean (`true`)	If `true`, queues the request during downtime, until connected to Kuzzle again
`from`	number (`0`)	Offset of the first document to fetch
`size`	number (`10`)	Maximum number of documents to retrieve per page
`scroll`	string (`""`)	When set, gets a forward-only cursor having its ttl set to the given value (ie `30s`; cf elasticsearch time limits)
`lang`	string	Specify the query language to use. By default, it's `elasticsearch` but `koncorde` can also be used. Available since 7.4.8
`timeout`	number (`-1`)	Time (in ms) during which a request will still be waited to be resolved. Set it `-1` if you want to wait indefinitely
`triggerEvents`	boolean (`false`)	If set to `true`, will trigger events even if using Embeded SDK. You should always ensure that your events/pipes does not create an infinite loop. Available since Kuzzle 2.31.0
