# Re-enabled customer search terms in the GraphQL and REST Admin APIs

We've re-enabled several customer-related `query` terms in all versions of the [GraphQL Admin API](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2024-07/queries/customers#argument-query) and [REST Admin API](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest/2024-07/resources/customer#get-customers-search?query=email:bob.norman@mail.example.com).

Version 2024-07 of these APIs disabled the following `query` terms for searching customers:

* `accepts_marketing`
* `city`
* `company`
* `country`
* `customer_date`
* `email_marketing_state`
* `last_abandoned_order_date`
* `order_date`
* `orders_count`
* `province`
* `sms_marketing_state`
* `state`
* `tag`
* `tag_not`
* `territory_code`
* `total_spent`

These options have been re-enabled across all API versions, allowing for more specific customer searches. For more details, refer to the [GraphQL Admin API documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2024-07/queries/customers#argument-query) and the [REST Admin API documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-rest/2024-07/resources/customer#get-customers-search?query=email:bob.norman@mail.example.com).
