How to filter when using GET /rest/api/2/project/search?

[Lara_Gonzalez_Villanueva]

Hi, 

I'm using the api GET /rest/api/2/project/search with Python for getting a list of projects. I would like to filter by projectTypeKey, projectCategory or even searching the name of the project in like... But I do not know exactly how to do it or if it is even possible.

Could you help me? This is the code that I'm using:

connection_params = get_connection_params(pard, data)

url = '%s/rest/api/2/project/search' % connection_params['url']

params = {
          'jql': 'name ~ "myText" AND projectCategory in ("category1", "category2") order by lastViewed DESC',
          'projectTypeKey': 'software',        
          'fields': '[key, summary, description]',
          'maxResults': '100',
}
response = requests.get(url=url,
                        auth=connection_params['auth'],
                        proxies=connection_params['proxy'],
                        headers=connection_params['headers'],
                        params=params)

 Thank you!

Hi @Lara_Gonzalez_Villanueva 

If you use the v3 API you are able to pass in filter parameters which should help you.
