# Search audience profiles

`POST /api/v1/audiences/search`

Free-text and field-filtered search across audience profiles. Use
the request body's `limit` field to cap how many matches are
returned (most-relevant first) and the `filterBy*` fields to
narrow the search.

## Query parameters

- `feature` string

## Request body

- AudiencesSearchRequest — Request body for `POST /api/v1/audiences/search`.
  - `query` string — Free-text search query.
  - `id` string — Filter to a single audience by id.
  - `sort` string — Sort expression (for example `name:asc`).
  - `filterBy` object — Field-level filter.
  - `filterByCollection` object — Collection-level filter.
  - `fields` string[] — Subset of fields to return.
  - `extraFields` string[] — Additional fields to include beyond defaults.
  - `limit` integer — Maximum number of results.

## Response `200`

Matching audiences returned.

- AudiencesListResponse — Response body for `GET /api/v1/audiences` and `POST /api/v1/audiences/search`. `result` and `items` are the same array of audience profiles (`items` is the pagination alias).
  - `success` boolean — Always `true` on success.
  - `result` object[], required — Audience profiles.
    - `id` string — Audience identifier.
    - `name` string — Audience name.
  - `items` object[] — Same audience profiles as `result` (present when paginating).
  - `next_cursor` string, nullable — Opaque cursor for the next page, or `null` on the last page. Pagination is opt-in — omit `limit`/`cursor` to receive the full list.

## Other responses

- `400` — Generic client error. `error.code` is one of `BAD_REQUEST`, `INVALID_JSON`, `MISSING_REQUIRED_FIELD`, `MISSING_QUERY_PARAM`, `MISSING_CALLBACK_ID`, `MISSING_SLIDES_ARRAY`, `MISSING_PROMPT`, `MISSING_TEMPLATE_ID`, `MISSING_FILE_CONTENT`, `MISSING_SHARE_DETAILS`, `INVALID_TYPE`, `INVALID_DATA`, `INVALID_DATA_TYPE`, `INVALID_PAYLOAD`, `INVALID_REQUEST`, `API_REQUEST_FAILED`, or `FILE_UPLOAD_FAILED`.
- `401` — Caller did not present a valid Bearer token, or the token has expired. `error.code` is one of `UNAUTHORIZED`, `INVALID_API_KEY`, `EXPIRED_API_KEY`.
- `403` — Caller is authenticated but not allowed to perform this operation. `error.code` is `FORBIDDEN`.
- `404` — Requested endpoint or resource does not exist. `error.code` is one of `ENDPOINT_NOT_FOUND`, `RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND`, `NOT_FOUND`.
- `422` — Request was well-formed but failed semantic validation. `error.code` is one of `INVALID_INPUT`, `UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY`.
- `429` — Rate limit, usage limit, or gateway-level throttle exceeded. `error.code` is `TOO_MANY_REQUESTS` (gateway throttle), `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` (per-category), or `USAGE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` (annual quota). Default limits (all configurable per company/key): - Gateway throttle (per API key) → `TOO_MANY_REQUESTS`: 10 requests/second sustained, 5 burst, 1,000 requests/day. - Per-company, per-category sliding 60-second window → `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`. The applicable category is given by each operation's `x-rate-limit-category`. - Annual usage quota → `USAGE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`: 50,000 slide generations/year and 1,000,000 presentation downloads/year. `X-RateLimit-Limit`/`X-RateLimit-Remaining`/`X-RateLimit-Reset` are returned on successful (2xx) responses from rate-limited endpoints and, with `Retry-After`, on the per-category `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` 429 (the headers declared below). The gateway `TOO_MANY_REQUESTS` and annual `USAGE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` responses do not carry them. Read `X-RateLimit-Remaining` to self-throttle and honour `Retry-After` on a 429.
- `500` — Unexpected server error. `error.code` is `INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR`.
- `503` — Service is temporarily unavailable (downstream dependency unhealthy). `error.code` is `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` or `EXTERNAL_SERVICE_ERROR`.
- `504` — A downstream call timed out. `error.code` is `GATEWAY_TIMEOUT`.
