Configuration

To enable the google Search Appliance Compatible API, add web.api.gsa=true to system.properties.

Request

By sending a request to Fess like http://localhost:8080/gsa/?q=search_term, you can receive search results in GSA-compatible XML format. The request parameters that can be specified are the same as the JSON Response Search API.
