About this endpoint

GET /v1/vimeo/channels/search?query=staff returns data.channels and data.total. Each row has the channel fields: id, name, description, logo, badge, url, dates, creator, counts and tags. The search rows are lighter than the single channel record, so use the id or slug with channels/{channel} when you need the full branding and counts.

Results follow Vimeo's relevance order; there is no sort parameter. The route accepts page up to 20,000, limit up to 100 and a cursor, and stops at 10,000 rows. There is no lookupStatus on search: an empty channels array with hasMore: false is a real result.
