If the provided scope already has a specific Discovery configuration defined, then this parameter will be ignored.hitHighlighting: Whether hit highlighting results should be returned by this request.f.<:filter-name>=<:filter-value>,<:filter-operator>: Advanced search filter that has to be used to filter the result set. Thefilter-nameandfilter-operatormust match a value returned by the DiscoveryConfigurations endpoint (see here). For examplef.author=5df05073-3be7-410d-8166-e254369e4166,authorityorf.title=rainbows,notcontains. If the filter operator is absent or invalid a "422 Unprocessable Entity" will be returned.page,size&sortsee pagination: the sort name must match a value returned by the DiscoveryConfigurations endpoint (see here). or default, followed by a comma and the order direction.
