I solved my problem by modifing sites.get.js re-adding a filter sitePreset on resulting sites.
But this is a simple workaround. Any idea about the problem?


function main()
{
    // Get the filter parameters
    var nameFilter = args["nf"];
    var sitePreset = args["spf"];
    var sizeString = args["size"];
    var mysites = [];
    
    // Get the list of sites
    var sites = siteService.listSites(nameFilter, sitePreset, sizeString != null ? parseInt(sizeString) : 0);
    
    if(sitePreset && sitePreset != ''){
   for(i=0; i<sites.length; i++) {
      if(sites[i].sitePreset == sitePreset){
         mysites.push(sites[i]);
      }
   }
    model.sites = mysites;
    }
    else{
    model.sites = sites;
    }
   
}

main();

I've been having the same problem through both the JavaScript Services API and the REST API. I've found that it's possible to filter by name, but not by site preset type.

I get the same end result using (and then parsing) each of these:

JavaScript API

siteService.listSites("", "project-site-dashboard");‍

REST API

var connector = remote.connect("alfresco");
var result = connector.get("/api/sites?spf=project-site-dashboard");‍‍

PS - I may be paraphrasing the code that I tested, as I'm rewriting it from memory. I tried sending several combinations of parameters for each API, hoping that something was poorly documented and I could magically get it to work.
