I have been reviewing the PowerAutomate API for DocuWare: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/docuware/#search-for-documents

I am having issues with the Search for Documents API. One of the parameters is "Search Query". I don't know what should be put here to make the call work. There is no guidance on the correct format for this parameter. Is this a index field name? A FileCabinet?

Can anyone advise what a proper parameter would look like?

Hi James Strnad, 

I have not used the PowerAutomate connector yet, but I would guess that it is just based on the DW REST API and uses mostly the same methods and the same format.
Maybe you can find what you are looking for here: https://developer.docuware.com/

Hi Simon,
Thanks for your response. I am not very technical so it is hard for me to understand JSON and other in this document.

If I can get some feedback about what the expected input would be in this field would be really helpful.

I found this (attached Query.png) at line 1853: but I am not sure if something like this is what needs to be put in this parameter field. 

If anyone could confirm I would be eternally grateful.

best regards
James

Hi James,

documentation for the Power Automate Connector is available in the Knowledge Center.

This is a basic example for the search in one field:


{"DBNAME":["Value"]}

DBNAME - The index field name. This should be capitalized as shown in the example above.
Value - The value for the specified index field. Note that the ‘Value’ also supports operators such as *, OR, and NOT.
