support of filter in group search

ZhenQian — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 18:33:44 GMT

According to the Search reference in ArcGIS REST API: filter (i.e. defined in filter parameter) should be used instead of query".

However, it looks like the groups.search function inside ArcGIS API for Python only supports query search. I cannot find a way to do the filter search for ArcGIS groups.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

You are correct there is no filter parameter for the Python REST API group search function:

You can either employ the query parameter instead, or query the ArcGIS Rest API directly using the requests module, for example.
