There are several areas where the API does not support filtering effectively.
In the case of software, it would be really useful if the public api (api/v2/applications ) supported the same options as the undocumented endpoint used by the GUI (/api/_/applications) - i.e. ?filter=search&search_term=[search]
Whilst we’re making requests for the API - it would also be useful to
- add filter options to the vendor, contracts and product endpoints,
- add all (more) fields to the filter options for the requestor endpoints - specifically external_id
