Following the swagger from the api documentation gives me NULL result when adding the query parameter field. lso doen't work to filter out certain data for example "Work hours" etc.

Public api endpoint: https://jobsearch.api.jobtechdev.se/

@Mr.R - It looks like qfields expects an array and currently it's being passed a string.

I don't think "Stockholm" is a valid array value. Looking at those docs, it's only occupation, skill, etc.

I think "Stockholm" needs to be the value for q as the freetext query field and then you use the qfields options listed to use that freetext value provided.

Here's an example, @Mr.R

Oh ok, my idea was to have a picklist for location and the freetext would be for inputting Job role.

I tried using concatenation within the q field but it doesn't display correct result.

I don't know enough about what the API is used for and how everything works together but the original problem did appear to be related to the qfields query param not being an array and not using the array values specified in their docs.
Have you managed to solve it now?

I'm still experimenting and found out that when qfields is set to "location", the search input only accept defined Locations.

Will keep exploring, anyway your help is always much appreciated Tom

Yeah, the API looks quite comprehensive. Good luck and shout if you run into more problems.

Tom i manage to fix it and it now filters correctly!

Had to set the qfields location to EMPTY and then on q-freetext formula just concatinate the created "Cities" variable with the array of defined locations. 😅
