# Vimeo Group Search API

Find groups by term, then page through group records with member and video counts.

`GET /v1/vimeo/groups/search?query=film` returns `data.groups` and `data.total`. Each row carries the group fields: id, name, description, url, logo, thumbnail, dates, creator, counts, tags and categories. Search rows are lighter than the single group record, so use the id or slug with `groups/{group}` when you need the full record.

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 `groups` array with `hasMore: false` is a real result.

### How do I read a group's videos or members?

Take the group slug or id from the result and call groups/{group}/videos or groups/{group}/members.
