I use the REST endpoint /search to get a list of articles for certain keywords. There are a few categories that I don't want to search.
In the endpoint I can only give a positive list of categories. To get my desired result, I first have to get a list of all categories, then filter out the unwanted ones and then specify the result as categories to be searched.
This is cumbersome and not optimal for the runtime.
I would like it if I could also specify a list of categories that are ignored for the search.
It would also be good if I could specify the maximum number of results (I usually only need the TOP 3 or TOP 5 of the search results).
And it would be optimal if I could specify in the request whether I want to have the text of the article in the result. For my usecase, I only need the category, subject and link to the article. The complete text only makes the result larger and slower.
I would be happy if my suggestions were implemented.
