Working with Hash Indexes
=========================

If a suitable hash index exists, then `/_api/simple/by-example` will use this
index to execute a query-by-example.

<!-- js/actions/api-index.js -->
{% docublock post_api_index_hash %}

<!-- js/actions/api-index.js -->
{% docublock put_api_simple_by_example %}

<!-- js/actions/api-index.js -->
{% docublock put_api_simple_first_example %}
