+#### 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 setting this generated string to the `GetFileListRequest` object using `setSearchQuery`.
+
+```java
+String[] tags = new String[3];
+tags[0] = "Software";
+tags[1] = "Developer";
+tags[2] = "Engineer";
+GetFileListRequest getFileListRequest = new GetFileListRequest();
