Hello,

I am using the search query:

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/search/query
 
{
  requests: [
    {
      entityTypes: ['driveItem'],
      query: {
        queryString:
          'filename:"search" AND path:"https://tenant-my.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/Documents/folder" AND ParentLink:"/folder"',
      },
      fields: [
        'mimeType',
        'id',
        'parentReference',
        'createdBy',
        'name',
        'webUrl',
        'createdDateTime',
        'lastModifiedDateTime',
      ],
    },
  ],
}

My use case:

  1. I have 2 files: 'Fir test.png' and 'Fir test.docx' in a folder.
  2. I am searching with filename = "fir".

Expected result: 2 files are found.

Actual result: only 'Fir test.docx' is found.

What can be a reason for it?

    Hi @Olga Andreeva

    Per my test, you could use following api

    POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/search/query
    {
        "requests": [
            {
                "entityTypes": [
                    "driveItem"
                ],
                "query": {
                    "queryString": "Fir AND Path:https://tenant-my.sharepoint.com/sites/sitename/libraryname AND ParentLink:/foldername"
                }
            }
        ]
    }
    

    Here is the test result
