Enhancement on api filter text?

[daffychuy]

Hello,
So I've noticed when I search up a particular anime like "100% Pascal-sensei" on kitsu.io, it returns the two version (1 TV and 1 OVA)
but if I go to https://kitsu.io/api/edge/anime?filter[text]=100%20Pascal-sensei, it gives a huge chunk of anime that are related and none related. Is there a way to narrow down to how the main page search does it?

Thanks!

The site uses a new search engine called Algolia which has much better matching results (and faster). The API search with filter[text] is still using the old ElasticSearch engine which is much looser on matching things. API search will probably switch over to Algolia at some point, but I don't see it happening any time soon.

General questions about Kitsu.io's API are better suited over at https://github.com/hummingbird-me/hummingbird, on Kitsu's Slack group (email @JoshFabian) or sending me a message on my Kitsu profile

Ahh okay, that explains why now.

And sorry about posting at the wrong place, did not see the hummingbird github, searched for kitsu and this one came up.

Thanks!
