I'm trying to work out the best way to use the food search endpoint in the web API (https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/web-api/food-logging/#search-foods)
I've assumed that the query parameter is just a string containing the user's search text, but I'm finding it difficult to use this effectively.
An example is if I search for a brand which I've created for my private custom foods. Sometimes, this will return my private foods in the results, but sometimes it will not and there doesn't seem to be a reliable way to craft the query to include my custom foods in the results every time.
Does the search query parameter support anything like Lucene query syntax in order to more reliably filter the result set?
Alternatively, is there any way to sort, filter or paginate the results?
