Try something similar to this:

       "textAttributes": [
         "cm:content", "cm:name"

       "namespace": "cm",
       "defaultFieldName": "PATH"
     }
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks,

I figured out my issue here. We are using "query": "(<value to search>)" at the moment and the API doesn't seem to like being passed a search term without a field and then being told to "AND" it, which makes sense I guess. I am going to see if we can revert to specifying the fields again but I unfortunately cannot remember the reason we moved away from it in the first place. I will update here when I have a chance to work with this again. Thank you.
