@Kishore Nallan @Jason Bosco I came across one scenario while working with Typesense v28.0. I have a collection. In which I inserted some data. The data is divided in 10 categories. Now, I perform a normal search with query a (single letter a). • Case-1: I filtered out data based on 5 categories. It gave me 243 results. • Case-2: I removed 4 categories and only kept the one category. It gave me 247 results. So, here my question is, Shouldn't I get comparatively less number of results in case-2 than case-1 ? as I was only searching in single category.

Hey there, could you provide a small set of curl commands so I can check this out myself?

Depending on the filters, what keyword actually matches for typo matches can vary. And this can impact number of results fetched. Take a look at

max_candidates

parameter.
