I am using REST call to query a result source and fetching the results based on the search word. But it tries to absolute match the results. What I mean is if I search for Test. it gets me results which has Test as a keyword.
But if i search for "Test for results" does not get me results for "Test". How can we do this search.
For "OR" searches you need the OData $filter parameter
See chapter: 4.5 Filter System Query Option ($filter)
of http://www.odata.org/documentation/odata-version-2-0/uri-conventions/
URI Conventions (OData Version 2.0)
http://www.odata.org/documentation/odata-version-2-0/uri-conventions/
Use OData query operations in SharePoint REST requests
