About this endpoint

GET /v1/vimeo/users/search?query=film returns data.users and data.total. Each row is a user record with the fields this route returns; fields it does not return are null, so load users/{user} when you need the full profile. query is required and accepts up to 200 characters; sort takes followers.

User search accepts page up to 400, limit up to 100 and a cursor, and stops at 10,000 rows. There is no lookupStatus on search: an empty users array with hasMore: false is a real result, not a missing profile.
