            - This parameter will be overridden if the search request is authenticated by a [search token](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/) that enforces a specific [`pipeline`](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/#pipeline-string-optional), or a [`searchHub`](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/#searchhub-string-optional) that routes queries to a specific `pipeline` via a query pipeline condition.

            - When logging a **Search** usage analytics event for a query, the `originLevel1` field of that event should be set to the value of the `searchHub` search request parameter.

                Note: When logging a Search usage analytics event, the language field of that event should match the language part of the locale value of the query (e.g., en-US in locale becomes en in language).

          example:
          - No index items matched your query, therefore no passages could be retrieved. Try rephrasing your query or checking whether the query pipeline filters are too restrictive.

    Pipeline:
      type: string
      nullable: true
      description: 'The name of the query pipeline to use for this request (bypassing its conditions, if it has any).


        You can pass an empty `pipeline` value to use an empty query pipeline (i.e., `?pipeline=` or `"pipeline": ""`).


        If a query does not contain the `pipeline` parameter, the first query pipeline whose conditions are met by the request is used (query pipelines without conditions are not evaluated). Should the request fail to meet the conditions of each evaluated query pipeline, the default query pipeline of the target Coveo Cloud organization is used (bypassing its conditions, if it has any).


        **Notes:**


        - This parameter will be overridden if the search request is authenticated by a [search token](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/) that enforces a specific [`pipeline`](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/#pipeline-string-optional), or a [`searchHub`](https://docs.coveo.com/en/56/#searchhub-string-optional) that routes queries to a specific `pipeline` via a query pipeline condition.

        - For reporting purposes, when logging a **Search** usage analytics event for a query, the `queryPipeline` field of that event should be set to the final `pipeline` value used in the query execution. This value is determined from the query response. If no pipeline was specified, it uses the `"default"` value.
