{'ResultItems': {'ScoreAttributes': {'ScoreConfidence': 'VERY_HIGH | HIGH | ' 'MEDIUM'}}}
Searches an active index. Use this API to search your documents using query. The Query operation enables to do faceted search and to filter results based on document attributes.
It also enables you to provide user context that Amazon Kendra uses to enforce document access control in the search results.
Amazon Kendra searches your index for text content and question and answer (FAQ) content. By default the response contains three types of results.

You can specify that the query return only one type of result using the QueryResultTypeConfig parameter.

string
[REQUIRED]
The unique identifier of the index to search. The identifier is returned in the response from the operation.
string
[REQUIRED]
The text to search for.
dict
Enables filtered searches based on document attributes. You can only provide one attribute filter; however, the AndAllFilters, NotFilter, and OrAllFilters parameters contain a list of other filters.
The AttributeFilter parameter enables you to create a set of filtering rules that a document must satisfy to be included in the query results.
AndAllFilters (list) --

When you use the AndAllFilters or OrAllFilters, filters you can use 2 layers under the first attribute filter. For example, you can use:
<AndAllFilters>
<OrAllFilters>
<EqualTo>
If you use more than 2 layers, you receive a ValidationException exception with the message " AttributeFilter cannot have a depth of more than 2."
OrAllFilters (list) --
Performs a logical OR operation on all supplied filters.
(dict) --
Provides filtering the query results based on document attributes.
When you use the AndAllFilters or OrAllFilters, filters you can use 2 layers under the first attribute filter. For example, you can use:

(dict) --
Information about a document attribute
DocumentAttributeKey (string) --
The unique key for the document attribute.
list

(string) --
string
Sets the type of query. Only results for the specified query type are returned.
integer
Query results are returned in pages the size of the PageSize parameter. By default, Amazon Kendra returns the first page of results. Use this parameter to get result pages after the first one.
integer
Sets the number of results that are returned in each page of results. The default page size is 10. The maximum number of results returned is 100. If you ask for more than 100 results, only 100 are returned.
dict
Provides information that determines how the results of the query are sorted. You can set the field that Amazon Kendra should sort the results on, and specify whether the results should be sorted in ascending or descending order. In the case of ties in sorting the results, the results are sorted by relevance.
If you don't provide sorting configuration, the results are sorted by the relevance that Amazon Kendra determines for the result.
DocumentAttributeKey (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The name of the document attribute used to sort the response. You can use any field that has the Sortable flag set to true.
You can also sort by any of the following built-in attributes:
_category
_created_at
_last_updated_at
_version
_view_count
SortOrder (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The order that the results should be returned in. In case of ties, the relevance assigned to the result by Amazon Kendra is used as the tie-breaker.
