Search via Document Webhooks

Returns metadata for the files and folders returned from a search. This can be implemented as a full-text search or as a regular database query. Adobe Workfront calls the /search endpoint when the user performs a search from the external file browser.

URL

GET /search

Query Parameters

Name
Description
query
The search term or phrase.
parentId
(optional) The folder ID from which the search executed. Note: This is a placeholder for a future feature in Workfront. Currently, workfront does not pass this parameter.
max
The maximum number of items to return. Used for pagination.
offset
The page offset, used in conjunction with 'max'.

Response

JSON containing a list of metadata for files and folders matching the query. What constitutes a “match” is determined by the webhook provider. Ideally, it should do a full-text search. Doing a filename-based search also works.
