I’m currently training in Lucidworks Fusion and learning a lot of the vocab. I believe that conceptually, a query is a 'question' you ask the database. And a 'parameter' is a key-value pair.

But what's a good definition of a query parameter? Is that a Solr-specific term?
How do query parameters relate to query strings and URL parameters?

In Solr/Fusion a query parameter might look like: fq=access:(“user1 OR user2”)
Fusion's UI defines fq as the parameter and access:("user1 OR user2") as the parameter value.

  • BTW, I’ve found this link helpful, but the term ‘query parameter’ is not directly used: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39266970/what-is-the-difference-between-url-parameters-and-query-strings – Kyle Vassella Jun 01 '17 at 20:40
  • Pretty sure they're just referring to parameters (per the question you linked to) passed to a solr query (See solr's [Common Query Parameters](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Common+Query+Parameters)). – femtoRgon Jun 01 '17 at 20:56
