Conference Search

`GET /api/search/conferences`

Queries the conferences collection with selectable columns and count/numeric aggregation. See shared search behavior for filtering precedence, array unwinding, aggregation output, and validation errors.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`apikey`	string	API key, if required. Alternatively use the `X-API-Key` header.
`json`	string	JSON-encoded MongoDB filter. Overrides `filter`.
`filter`	object/array	MongoDB filter using bracket notation.
`search`	string	Trimmed, case-insensitive regular expression on stored `title`; replaces the supplied filter.
`columns[]`	array	Selected fields plus string `id`. Array paths may unwind records; see shared search behavior.
`aggregate`	string	Non-empty stored field path to group by.
`aggregate_function`	string	`count` (default), `sum`, `mean`, or `median`.
`aggregate_value`	string	Numeric stored field path, required for `sum`, `mean`, and `median`.
`raw`	flag	No effect for this entity; results are not passed through the project renderer.
`limit`	integer	Maximum returned rows; subject to the current pagination behavior.
`offset`	integer	Number of rows to skip when `limit` is used. Defaults to `0`; negative values become `0`.

Example Request

1	`GET /api/search/conferences?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY`

Example Response

{
  "status": 200,
  "count": 1,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "665ef1234567890abcdef1234",
      "location": "Berlin",
      "start": "2026-11-01",
      "end": "2026-11-03"
    }
  ]
}

Default Fields

Field	Description
`id`	Conference ID as string.
`name`	Stored `name`, if present; not mapped from `title`.
`location`	Stored location, if present.
`start, end`	Stored start and end dates, if present.

Missing stored or rendered fields may be omitted. count is the number of projected rows before shared pagination; aggregation instead reports the number of groups. full and formatted are not supported.

Title Search

The default name column is not derived from title. Local conference records contained title but no name, so the default response omitted name. Select columns[]=title to retrieve the stored title, or use search to filter it.
