getFilter()

public String getFilter()

The filter syntax consists of an expression language for constructing a predicate from one or more fields of the documents being filtered. Filter expression is case-sensitive.

If this field is unrecognizable, an INVALID_ARGUMENT is returned.

Filtering in Vertex AI Search is done by mapping the LHS filter key to a key property defined in the Vertex AI Search backend -- this mapping is defined by the customer in their schema. For example a media customer might have a field 'name' in their schema. In this case the filter would look like this: filter --> name:'ANY("king kong")'

string filter = 7;

Returns
Type Description
String

The filter.

This should be the same identifier as UserEvent.user_pseudo_id and CompleteQueryRequest.user_pseudo_id

The field must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.

string user_pseudo_id = 15;

Returns
Type Description
String

The userPseudoId.

getUserPseudoIdBytes()

public ByteString getUserPseudoIdBytes()
