# Vimeo Channel Search API

Find channels by term, then page through channel records with subscriber and video counts.

`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.

id, name, description, logo, badge, url, createdAt, updatedAt, creator, counts and tags. For the complete channel record, use the single channel route with its slug or id.

### How deep can I page?

page accepts up to 20,000, limit up to 100, and a cursor continues from a previous page. Channel search stops at 10,000 rows.

### How many credits does a search page cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.
