How can I limit my search to a particular entity type?

Using the DF API, I have found what seems to be a bug in the API.
If I use /entity/search/, and use
‘Agricultural Bank of China H share’, I get a long list of results, almost all
of which have
“type”: “document”
In the result.
If I change the request to use:
‘entityTypeId’:
‘1443817804036_instrument’
I would expect to exclude all
results that are documents. However, it
doesn’t seem to make any difference to the results.
The request URL is:
The request URL generated by the Data Fusion API webpage seems correct, but doesn’t
seem to have any impact.

Hi @peter.vonbredow,
`entityTypeId` expects a long value that is the id of the entity type.
`1443817804036_instrument` is the shortname for `Instrument` entity type that has id of 28 on this particular instance [from https://{instance}/datafusion/api#!/entity/getEntityTypes]. Please try the id value for entityTypeId parameter for Instrument entity type, the request URL would be:
https://{instance}/datafusion/api/entity/search?searchString=Agricultural Bank of China H share&entityTypeId=28&includePredicates=false&includeRelDir=false&filterType=and&includeHiddenFields=false
It seems there is no Instrument that matches the search string 'Agricultural Bank of China H share'
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Nguyen Nguyen0
