kql-and-indexing

Query Kinetic Platform submissions using KQL operators like equality (=), IN, and OR to filter data. You construct query strings targeting specific submission fields to retrieve matching records efficiently through the API.

Form-level indexes optimize queries targeting a single form's submissions, while kapp-level indexes support broader searches across an entire kapp. Both compound and single-field indexes accelerate KQL data retrieval performance.

Build a compound index in Kinetic Query Language by defining multiple fields within your form or kapp index definition. This allows range and equality operators to query combined fields efficiently without client-side filtering.

KQL queries return inaccurate results due to common gotchas like missing form indexes or incorrect operator syntax. Ensure queried fields are properly indexed and validate operators like IN and range filters against Kinetic Platform API requirements.

Client-side filtering strategies work for Kinetic Platform data retrieval when server-side KQL indexing is unavailable. However, relying on API range operators and indexed fields yields faster, more accurate submission query results.

Understanding the Kinetic Platform API is required to implement KQL effectively. You must know how to pass KQL query strings, define form index structures, and handle API responses for successful submission data retrieval.
