application/json
Authors search response containing a list of authors that match the search criteria. If no matches, returns a failed search response according to the defined schema.

The response model for the search requests applies to the Search, Latest Headlines, Search by link, and Authors endpoints. Response field behavior:

  • Required fields are guaranteed to be present and non-null.
  • Optional fields may be null or undefined if the data point is not presented or couldn't be extracted during processing.
  • To access article properties in the articles response array, use array index notation. For example, articles[n].title, where n is the zero-based index of the article object (0, 1, 2, etc.).
  • The nlp property within the article object articles[n].nlp is only available with NLP-enabled subscription plans.
