Description:

What are some tips for creating a  Classic UI Deep Link to search more fields of a PNX record, similar to an Advanced Search in Classic UI?

Resolution:

Deep Links can be constructed using the available parameters (such as using multiple &query parameters) that will perform the same searches used by the Advanced Search screen.

Classic UI Deep Links are documented in Developers Network: 
https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com...eeplinks/brief

Fields to be searched must be in the <search> section of PNX. If facet syntax is uesd, fields from <facet> section are used.
It is also recommended to use the &search_scope parameter instead of the deprecated &loc parameter for specifying scopes.

an example query:
title starts with Harry
creator contains rowling
subject contains wizards
facet prefilter equals books

as a Deep Link:

http://myPrimo.hosted.exlibrisgroup....scope=my_scope

For the New UI, there is no special syntax for Deep Links. You can perform an Advanced Search using the interface, and use the resulting Primo Search Url as a Deep Link.
