Sending a parameter to GDELT API is not returning the expected result

I'm trying to connect to Gdelt Doc API and so far I can send all the query parameters except for one of them. Before I get to the problem I want you to see the code.

So if you call this method it will send a request to gdelt API (Doc API) and return the list of web sites that given search word appears on it. It has many filters one of which is Domain.

When I enter a Domain for example:cnn.com , it won't return only the websites from that domain which is the expected behaivior.

Has anyone, any experience with this?

domain and station should be passed directly after the query parameter for example check this Url.

https://api.gdeltproject.org/api/v2/doc/doc?query=Volkswagen%20domain:cnn.com&mode=artlist&repeat3:%22Volkswagen%22

if you want to search for more than one domain you have to use (domain:FIRST DOMAIN%20OR%20domain:SECOND DOMAIN)

check this example:

https://api.gdeltproject.org/api/v2/doc/doc?query=Volkswagen%20(domain:bloomberg.com%20OR%20domain:cnn.com)&mode=artlist&repeat3:%22Volkswagen%22
