How it works

  • GET /api/v1/search/overview and /api/v1/search/queries expose summary statistics and grouped queries.
  • Fetch a query's occurrences using its query_hash.
  • Reporting periods support 7, 30 or 90 days, with the filters listed by each endpoint.
  • Search rules connect phrases to selected products and categories and can be created, read, updated or deleted.
  • Rules and analytics have separate permissions; reading search statistics does not grant configuration access.
