+#### Advance Search
+In addition, you can fine-tune your query by specifying various filters by generating a query string in a Lucene-like syntax and providing this generated string as the value of the `search_query`.

+```Python

+
+options = ListAndSearchFileRequestOptions(
+    search_query="createdAt >= '2d' OR size < '2mb' OR format='png'",

+# print the first file's ID
