--data-urlencode or your HTTP library’s query encoder so regex characters reach the API intact. Escape regex metacharacters when you intend a literal search.
The specs, total, and hasMore envelope uses the same summary format and pagination as list specifications. Use spec status for full bodies.
Errors
| Status | When |
|---|---|
400 | query is missing or empty |
401 | Missing or invalid key, or a personal key without a paid plan |
500 | The regular expression is invalid, or an unexpected error. Correct the pattern instead of retrying it |
