You can alter the sequence in which products are displayed by passing the sort parameter.

Sort by a single value

&sort=price+asc

&sort=sale_price+desc

&sort=launch_date+asc

&sort=brand+asc

Sort by multiple values

#Multiple values must be comma-separated
#Sorting values are applied from left to right
&sort=reviews+desc,sale_price+desc

How Sort affects Ranking and Recall

Ranking: Sort overrides ranking rules (Boost, Bury, Slot rules). When you pass the sort parameter in the API requests, it overrides any ranking rules configured for the search query/category and ranks the products based on the sort parameter value.

Recall: Sort does not affect the recall set. The dashboard rules that influence the recall (Include/Exclude rules) will continue to apply.
