Using multiple filters when getting contacts from /contacts API

Using multiple filters when getting contacts from /contacts API

HI there, I'm working with the invoice contacts API and got it working with "company_name" or "company_name_contains" fields. Now I'd like to apply an additional field which is "filter_by" where I'd pass "Status.Active" as value.

Unfortunately when I apply "company_name" AND "filter_by" in the same request I get ALL the contacts from my organization and not only the active once matching the value I set in company_name. Is that expected and filters must be used one at a time? Or should I create my request differently?

Thanks in advace
