# Product Search and Retrieve

You can search products by using different variance of basic data available to you such as date, IDs, and attributes.

The Platform offers a variety of Search APIs for various circumstances, allowing you to carry out the necessary **Search** operations.

          IMPORTANT!

          

Make sure to use a unique identifier type to avoid having duplicated products in a response payload. The identifier must be unique so you can search for specified products.

If the products don't have a unique identifier, please create a simple attribute that will help identify items.

**Tips**

- Use **shouldIncludeMissingVocabularyAttributes=true** to see attributes that are not mapped in the customer vocab file.
- To view actual identifiers in an attribute **"ProductIdentifierValue"** or for a packaging hierarchy **"ImmediateParentDetails":{}**, please make sure the attribute **"ProductIdentifierProperty": ""** is set to your desired identifier type e.g. GTIN, UPC in a vocabulary.
- To see Recipient Overrides returned in product search, set **shouldIncludeMissingVocabularyAttributes=true** and **useLens=false**.
- Due to limitations of elastic search engine keep the number of searched products below 10 000. Search results that yield counts >10,000 products should be filtered to be <10,000. Typically using date ranges to limit this allows for this ability in a clear manner.
