# DefaultOperator

The default query operator to use to separate terms that you specify in the query text.

This option allows you to change the weighting used in queries (for example by using a `WNEAR` operator or the `OR` operator), or to use additional restrictions (for example, by using the `AND` operator). This parameter overrides the configured DefaultQueryOperator for the action.

You can use any of the query Boolean or proximity operators as the `DefaultOperator`, except for `NOT`. For the list of operators, see Boolean and Proximity Search.

NOTE: For the GetContent and Highlight action, `DefaultOperator` applies only if you also set Boolean to `True`.
