searching a specific folder for http GET request

[DAVIDPOWELL]

In my Flow for a "Send An http request to Sharepoint"

I have the search URI  working fine :

_api/search/query?querytext='@{replace(variables('SearchQuery'),'''','')}'&clienttype='ContentSearchRegular'&selectproperties='UniqueId, Title, OriginalPath'&rowlimit=@{variables('RowLimit')}&startrow=@{variables('RowsToSkip')}

what i need: 

i need to only search in a specific folder 

_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('/"Communications%20Deck%20Platform"')/files

I cant figure out where to place this additional address part

Thnks

Hi @DAVIDPOWELL,

To search in the specific folder you can specifying full folder path with site: managed property. Like this:

http://{site url}/_api/search/query?querytext='title:{query_text}+site:"{absolute path to folder}"'

Example:

http://server1/_api/search/query?querytext='title:Document*+site:"http:%2f%server1%2fLibrary2%2fFolder3"'
