all_keywords: keywords and slugs associated with the document. These keywords are displayed in the document viewer panel. This search requires a strict and complete value.

afpeditorialalbum: The AFP editorial board sometimes puts together groups of documents in the form of an album. Each of them has an identifier, allowing you to find all the documents that are part of the same event or subject. These album identifiers must be communicated to you so that you are able to use them.
To filter alerts and urgents: priority=(flash OR alert OR urgent). Please note that a search on urgents, for example, will only find urgents that have not yet been replaced by leads. For this reason, this field is more appropriate for real-time news alerts.
You can also search for documents according to their editorial genre. Example : to refer to all the press releases : genreid="afpattribute:PressRelease". To search for all adivsories or agenda: genreid=("afpattribute:Program" OR "afpattribute:Agenda" OR "afpgenre:Agenda"). To find text stories with the editorial genre Focus: genreid="afpattribute:insight"
