I am using below search query

{
    "q": "cheese",
    "query_by": "description,brand,categoryName,sku",
    "filter_by": "",
    "page": 1,
    "per_page": 30,
    "sort_by": "description:asc",
    "include_fields": "id,sku,description,categoryName,brand,packSizeDescription,images"
}

client.collections(collectionName).documents().search(searchParameters)

How do I use Dynamic Filtering ?

override = {
  "rule": {
    "query": "{brand} phone",
    "match": "contains"
  },
  "filter_by": "brand:={brand}",
  "remove_matched_tokens": true
}

// Creates/updates an override called `brand-filter` in the `companies` collection
client.collections('companies').overrides().upsert('brand-filter', override)

Do we have to add the overrides during collection setup?

Once you’ve created the collection, you would then create overrides after that separately
