Multiple idShort Parameters in GetAllAssetAdministrationShellsByIdShort possible

[sebbader]

Finding: SB#1

What?

The attributes 'style: form' and 'explode: true' lead to the option to add the idShort parameter several times in the GET request, e.g. http://localhost/shells?idShort=id-short-1&idShort=id-short-2
(see https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/main/versions/3.0.3.md#parameterObject)

What is the semantics between the two idShort values?

Proposed Change:

Mark the parameter as an array in SwaggerHub and declare an OR semantics between the values of the one parameter group but an AND semantics between different parameter groups

[sebbader]

Update: The statement that the combination of 'style: form' and 'explode: true' allow /shells?idShort=id-short-1&idShort=id-short-2 is not correct if schema.type is not set to array.
Nevertheless, the use case to ask for an AAS which has id-short-1 or id-short-2or ... is still common, therefore I am still supporting this request.

[sebbader]

This is a convenience feature, therefore changing the milestone to 3.x.

similar to searching for AAS with several specific asset IDs: here it is AND I would assume.
Probably we should have the same semantics in all of these different searches.

Closing the issue for now, as no additional push for a "search by any of these idShorts" appeared in several years.
