# Multi-query functions Multi-query functions allow you to group one or more queries together and evaluate them as a collection based on the function operator. The available multi-query function operators are: | [$and](https://api-docs.rightsline.com/search/search-functions/multi-query-functions/and) | Satisfies all conditions. | | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- | | [$or](https://api-docs.rightsline.com/search/search-functions/multi-query-functions/or) | Satisfies one or more conditions. | | [$not](https://api-docs.rightsline.com/search/search-functions/multi-query-functions/not) | Does not satisfy a condition. | To use multi-query functions, set one of the operators above as a key in the JSON request body, and set the value to an array of subqueries. The subqueries will then be evaluated based on the logic above. These multi-query functions can be nested inside other queries as well. In this case, the inner-most function is evaluated first, and then evaluated outwards. For instance, in the following contact search query, we would return results where the contact has a template ID equal to 10, and either the title has a value of `test` **or** the email address has a value of `email@gmail.com`.
