How the query is matched

The request carries only q, page and per_page. Everything else is fixed by the API, which searches the transportstyrelsen collection as below.

Field searchedTypeDescription
licencePlatestring
vinstring
namestring
vehicleNamestring
tradeNamestring
q
Optional; leaving it out searches with * and returns the first hits of the collection.
per_page
1 to 10; omitted means 10, more is answered with 400.
The last word is a prefix
While someone types, the word under the cursor matches the start of a word: "volv" finds Volvo. Earlier words match whole.
Typos are forgiven
Words of 4 to 6 characters match with one typo, 7 or more with two. Shorter words must be exact.
Words drop from the end
When no hit contains every word, the last words are dropped until something matches, so a longer query narrows the list without emptying it.
Ranked by text match
Hits come back best match first (_text_match:desc); there is no other sort.

Try the autocomplete

Type as your users would and watch the hits arrive through the proxy, listed the way an integration shows them.
