# What will be 'searchStatus' in case of a composite query?

If two or more data sources are used to perform a search, the value of the ***searchStatus*** will depend on the ***sourceStatus*** of all the data sources used.  
The three possible values of *searchStatus* are '**Successful**', '**Partial**' and '**NotSuccessful**'

The relation between the *sourceStatus* and *searchStatus* field is summarized in the table below. For the ease of understanding, two data sources have been taken, however, the same rules apply if more more than two data sources are used.

 

| **Data Source** | **Individual sourceStatus** | **Overall searchStatus** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Data Source 1 | Successful | Successful |
| Data Source 2 | Successful |  |
|   |   |   |
| Data Source 1 | Successful | Partial |
| Data Source 2 | Not Successful |  |
|   |   |   |
| Data Source 1 | Not Successful | Partial |
| Data Source 2 | Successful |  |
|   |   |   |
| Data Source 1 | Not Successful | NotSuccessful |
| Data Source 2 | Not Successful |  |

**Further explanation:**

- If the sourceStatus of all the data sources is Successful, the searchStatus will also be Successful.
- If the sourceStatus of at least one data source is Successful and at least one data source has a souceStatus of Not Successful, then the searchStatus will be Partial.
- If the sourceStatus of all the data sources is Not Successful, the searchStatus will be NotSuccessful.
