# Search API
|
|
|
|
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/41763) in GitLab 10.5.
|
|
> - [Feature flag `search_filter_by_confidential` removed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/244923) in GitLab 13.6.
|
|
|
|
Every API call to search must be authenticated.
|
|
|
|
## Global Search API
|
|
|
|
Search globally across the GitLab instance.
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
GET /search
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|
|
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `scope` | string | yes | The scope to search in |
|
|
| `search` | string | yes | The search query |
|
|
| `state` | string | no | Filter by state. Issues and merge requests are supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `confidential` | boolean | no | Filter by confidentiality. Issues scope is supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `order_by` | string | no | Allowed values are `created_at` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
| `sort` | string | no | Allowed values are `asc` or `desc` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
|
|
Search the expression within the specified scope. Currently these scopes are supported: projects, issues, merge_requests, milestones, snippet_titles, users.
|
|
|
|
If Elasticsearch is enabled additional scopes available are blobs, wiki_blobs, notes, and commits. Find more about [the feature](../integration/elasticsearch.md). **(STARTER)**
|
|
|
|
The response depends on the requested scope.

`filename` is deprecated in favor of `path`. Both return the full path of the file inside the repository, but in the future `filename` will be only the filename and not the full path. For details, see [issue 34521](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/34521).

Filters are available for this scope:
|

|
- filename
|
|
- path
|
|
- extension
|
|
|
|
to use a filter simply include it in your query like so: `a query filename:some_name*`.
|
|
|
|
You may use wildcards (`*`) to use glob matching.
|
|
|
|

## Group Search API
|
|
|
|
Search within the specified group.
|
|
|
|
If a user is not a member of a group and the group is private, a `GET` request on that group will result to a `404` status code.
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
GET /groups/:id/search
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|
|
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `id` | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the group](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) owned by the authenticated user |
|
|
| `scope` | string | yes | The scope to search in |
|
|
| `search` | string | yes | The search query |
|
|
| `state` | string | no | Filter by state. Issues and merge requests are supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `confidential` | boolean | no | Filter by confidentiality. Issues scope is supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `order_by` | string | no | Allowed values are `created_at` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
| `sort` | string | no | Allowed values are `asc` or `desc` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
|
|
Search the expression within the specified scope. Currently these scopes are supported: projects, issues, merge_requests, milestones, users.
|
|
|
|
If Elasticsearch is enabled additional scopes available are blobs, wiki_blobs, notes, and commits. Find more about [the feature](../integration/elasticsearch.md). **(STARTER)**
|
|
|
|
The response depends on the requested scope.

`filename` is deprecated in favor of `path`. Both return the full path of the file inside the repository, but in the future `filename` will be only the filename and not the full path. For details, see [issue 34521](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/34521).

|
|
- extension
|
|
|
|
to use a filter simply include it in your query like so: `a query filename:some_name*`.

You may use wildcards (`*`) to use glob matching.

## Project Search API
|
|
|
|
Search within the specified project.
|
|
|
|
If a user is not a member of a project and the project is private, a `GET` request on that project will result to a `404` status code.
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
GET /projects/:id/search
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|
|
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `id` | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](README.md#namespaced-path-encoding) owned by the authenticated user |
|
|
| `scope` | string | yes | The scope to search in |
|
|
| `search` | string | yes | The search query |
|
|
| `ref` | string | no | The name of a repository branch or tag to search on. The project's default branch is used by default. This is only applicable for scopes: commits, blobs, and wiki_blobs. |
|
|
| `state` | string | no | Filter by state. Issues and merge requests are supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `confidential` | boolean | no | Filter by confidentiality. Issues scope is supported; it is ignored for other scopes. |
|
|
| `order_by` | string | no | Allowed values are `created_at` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
| `sort` | string | no | Allowed values are `asc` or `desc` only. If this is not set, the results will either be sorted by `created_at` in descending order for basic search, or by the most relevant documents when using advanced search.|
|
|
|
|
Search the expression within the specified scope. Currently these scopes are supported: issues, merge_requests, milestones, notes, wiki_blobs, commits, blobs, users.
|
|
|
|
The response depends on the requested scope.

### Scope: wiki_blobs
|
|
|
|
Filters are available for this scope:
|
|
|
|
- filename
|
|
- path
|
|
- extension
|
|
|
|
To use a filter simply include it in your query like: `a query filename:some_name*`.
|
|
You may use wildcards (`*`) to use glob matching.
|
|
|
|
Wiki blobs searches are performed on both filenames and contents. Search
|
|
results:
|
|
|
|
- Found in filenames are displayed before results found in contents.
|
|
- May contain multiple matches for the same blob because the search string
|
|
might be found in both the filename and content, or might appear multiple
|
|
times in the content.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/6/search?scope=wiki_blobs&search=bye"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example response:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
[
|
|
{
|
|
"basename": "home",
|
|
"data": "hello\n\nand bye\n\nend",
|
|
"path": "home.md",
|
|
"filename": "home.md",
|
|
"id": null,
|
|
"ref": "master",
|
|
"startline": 5,
|
|
"project_id": 6
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
`filename` is deprecated in favor of `path`. Both return the full path of the file inside the repository, but in the future `filename` will be only the filename and not the full path. For details, see [issue 34521](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/34521).
