Search observations using URLs by several conditions with an 'AND' operator instead of 'OR'

I’m not an expert at this, but I believe different criteria params do a logical ‘AND’. If they are a list, or the same criteria it is an implicit ‘OR’. I believe what’s happening here is that these two criteria are expected to be used together and so being treated as an ‘OR’. See:

You may want to try using the exclusion criteria ( &without_term_id=) to eliminate the ones you don’t want. Logically that should work with an ‘OR’.
