Hi Priyank,

we have logged the IN issue, but meanwhile you can use a nested OR query for taxon_key to do the same.
Here is a modified query that searches for 3 taxon keys:

{
    "creator": "markus",
    "predicate": {
        "type": "and",
        "predicates": [
            {
                "key": "HAS_COORDINATE",
                "type": "equals",
                "value": "true"
            },
            {
                "key": "HAS_GEOSPATIAL_ISSUE",
                "type": "equals",
                "value": "false"
            },
            {
                "key": "YEAR",
                "type": "greaterThanOrEquals",
                "value": 1995
            },
            {
                "key": "COUNTRY",
                "type": "equals",
                "value": "IN"
            },
            {
              "type": "or",
              "predicates": [
                  {
                    "key": "TAXON_KEY",
                    "type": "equals",
                    "value": 797
                  },
                  {
                    "key": "TAXON_KEY",
                    "type": "equals",
                    "value": 798
                  },
                  {
                    "key": "TAXON_KEY",
                    "type": "equals",
                    "value": 799
                  }
              ]
            }
        ]
    }
}



See my download here which I created using curl:
