# Puntos de conexión de la API de REST para búsquedas

Use la API REST para buscar elementos específicos en GitHub.

## Acerca de la búsqueda

Puedes usar la API REST para buscar el elemento específico que quieras encontrar. Por ejemplo, puedes buscar un usuario o un archivo específico en el repositorio. Tómalo como el simil de realizar una búsqueda en Google. Se diseñó para ayudarte a encontrar el resultado exacto que estás buscando (o tal vez algunos de los resultados que buscas). Tal como la búsqueda en Google, a veces quieres ver algunas páginas de los resultados de búsqueda para que puedas encontrar el elemento que mejor satisfaga tus necesidades. Para satisfacer esa necesidad, la GitHub API REST proporciona **hasta 1000 resultados para cada búsqueda**.

Puedes delimitar tu búsqueda utilizando consultas. Para más información sobre la sintaxis de las consultas de búsqueda, consulta [Puntos de conexión de la API de REST para búsquedas](/es/enterprise-server@3.22/rest/search/search#constructing-a-search-query).

### Clasificar los resultados de la búsqueda

A menos de que se proporcione algún otro tipo de opción como parámetro de consulta, los resultados se clasificarán de acuerdo a la exactitud de la coincidencia en orden descendente. Varios factores se combinan para impulsar el elemento más relevante hasta arriba de la lista de resultados.

### Límite de tasa

> \[!NOTE]
> Los límites de frecuencia están deshabilitados de manera predeterminada para GitHub Enterprise Server. Contacta a tu administrador de sitio para confirmar los límites de frecuencia de tu instancia.

La API REST tiene un límite de frecuencia personalizado para la búsqueda. Para las solicitudes autenticadas, puedes realizar hasta 30 solicitudes por minuto. En el caso de las solicitudes sin autenticación, el límite de frecuencia le permite hacer hasta 10 solicitudes por minuto.

Para obtener información sobre cómo determinar el estado actual del límite de velocidad, consulta [Límite de velocidad](/es/enterprise-server@3.22/rest/rate-limit/rate-limit).

### Construir una consulta de búsqueda

Cada punto de conexión para buscar usa [parámetros de consulta](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_string) para realizar búsquedas en GitHub. Consulta los puntos de conexión individuales para obtener ejemplos que incluyen el punto de conexión y los parámetros de consulta.

Una consulta puede contener cualquier combinación de calificadores de búsqueda admitidos en GitHub. El formato de esta consulta de búsqueda es:

```text
SEARCH_KEYWORD_1 SEARCH_KEYWORD_N QUALIFIER_1 QUALIFIER_N
```

Por ejemplo, si quiere buscar todos los *repositorios* que pertenecen a `defunkt` y contienen las palabras `GitHub` y `Octocat` en el archivo Léame, puede usar la consulta siguiente con el punto de conexión de *búsqueda en repositorios*:

```text
GitHub Octocat in:readme user:defunkt
```

**Nota:** Asegúrese de usar el codificador HTML preferido de su lenguaje de programación para construir las cadenas de consulta. Por ejemplo:

```javascript
// JavaScript
const queryString = 'q=' + encodeURIComponent('GitHub Octocat in:readme user:defunkt');
```

Consulte [Buscar en GitHub](/es/enterprise-server@3.22/search-github/searching-on-github) para obtener una lista completa de los calificadores disponibles, su formato y un ejemplo de cómo usarlos. Para obtener información sobre cómo usar los operadores para comparar cantidades y fechas específicas, o para que excluyan resultados, consulta [Entender la sintaxis de búsqueda](/es/enterprise-server@3.22/search-github/getting-started-with-searching-on-github/understanding-the-search-syntax).

### Limitaciones sobre la longitud de la consulta

No puedes usar consultas que:

* Tienen más de 256 caracteres (sin incluir los operadores o calificativos).
* Tienen más de cinco operadores `AND`, `OR` o `NOT`.

Estas consultas de búsqueda devolverán un mensaje de error de "Validation failed".

### Límites del ámbito de búsqueda

A fin de mantener la velocidad de la API REST para todos los usuarios, se limita el número de repositorios en los que se buscará una consulta. La API REST encontrará hasta 4000 repositorios que coincidan con los filtros y devolverá resultados de esos repositorios.

### Tiempos excedidos y resultados incompletos

Para que la API REST sea rápida para todos, se limita el tiempo que se puede ejecutar una consulta individual. Para las consultas que [superan el límite de tiempo](https://developer.github.com/changes/2014-04-07-understanding-search-results-and-potential-timeouts/), la API devuelve las coincidencias que se han encontrado antes de que se cumpla el tiempo de espera y la respuesta tiene la propiedad `incomplete_results` establecida en `true`.

Llegar a una interrupción no necesariamente significa que los resultados de búsqueda estén incompletos.
Puede que se hayan encontrado más resultados, pero también puede que no.

### Errores de acceso o resultados de búsqueda faltantes

Necesita autenticarse correctamente y tener acceso a los repositorios en sus consultas de búsqueda, de otro modo, verá un error `422 Unprocessable Entry` con el mensaje "Validation Failed". Por ejemplo, la búsqueda fallará si la consulta incluye los modificadores `repo:`, `user:` o `org:` que solicitan recursos a los que no tiene acceso al iniciar sesión en GitHub.

Cuando su consulta de búsqueda solicita recursos múltiples, la respuesta solo contendrá aquellos a los que tenga acceso y **no** proporcionará un mensaje de error que liste los recursos que no se han devuelto.

Por ejemplo, si la consulta de búsqueda busca en los repositorios `octocat/test` y `codertocat/test`, pero solo tiene acceso a `octocat/test`, la respuesta mostrará los resultados de la búsqueda para `octocat/test` y no mostrará nada para `codertocat/test`. Este comportamiento imita el funcionamiento de la búsqueda en GitHub.

### Metadatos de coincidencia de texto

En GitHub, puede usar el contexto proporcionado por fragmentos de código y texto resaltado en los resultados de búsqueda. Los puntos de conexión de búsqueda devuelven metadatos adicionales que te permiten resaltar los términos de búsqueda coincidentes cuando se muestran los resultados de la búsqueda.

Las solicitudes pueden decidir recibir esos fragmentos de texto en la respuesta, y cada fragmento se acompaña de intervalos numéricos que identifican la ubicación exacta de cada término de búsqueda coincidente.

Para obtener estos metadatos en los resultados de búsqueda, especifique el tipo de medio `text-match` en el encabezado `Accept`.

```shell
application/vnd.github.text-match+json
```

Al proporcionar el tipo de medio `text-match`, recibirá una clave extra en la carga de JSON llamada `text_matches` que proporciona información sobre la posición de sus términos de búsqueda dentro del texto y el `property` que incluye dicho término de búsqueda. Dentro de la matriz `text_matches`, cada objeto incluye los siguientes atributos:

| Nombre        | Descripción                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `object_url`  | La URL del recurso que contiene una propiedad de cadena que coincide con uno de los términos de búsqueda.                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| `object_type` | El nombre del tipo de recurso que existe en el atributo `object_url` especificado.                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
| `property`    | El nombre de la propiedad del recurso que existe en `object_url`. Esa propiedad es una cadena que coincide con uno de los términos de búsqueda. (En el código JSON que se devuelve de `object_url`, el contenido completo del objeto `fragment` se encontrará en la propiedad con este nombre). |
| `fragment`    | Un subconjunto del valor de `property`. Este es el fragmento de texto que empata con uno o más de los términos de búsqueda.                                                                                                                                                                     |
| `matches`     | Una matriz de uno o más términos de búsqueda presentes en el objeto `fragment`. Los índices (es decir, "intervalos") son relativos al fragmento. (No son relativos al contenido *completo* del objeto `property`).                                                                              |

#### Ejemplo

Con un comando `curl` y el [ejemplo de búsqueda de incidencias](#search-issues-and-pull-requests) anterior, nuestra solicitud de API tendría este aspecto:

```shell
curl -H 'Accept: application/vnd.github.text-match+json' \
'http(s)://HOSTNAME/api/v3/search/issues?q=windows+label:bug \
+language:python+state:open&sort=created&order=asc'
```

La respuesta incluirá una matriz `text_matches` para cada resultado de búsqueda. En el código JSON siguiente, tenemos dos objetos en la matriz `text_matches`.

La primera coincidencia de texto se produjo en la propiedad `body` del problema. Aquí vemos un fragmento de texto del cuerpo del informe de problemas. El término de búsqueda (`windows`) aparece dos veces en ese fragmento, y tenemos los índices de cada aparición.

La segunda coincidencia de texto se produjo en la propiedad `body` de uno de los comentarios de la incidencia. Tenemos la URL para el comentario sobre el problema. Y, por supuesto, vemos un fragmento de texto del cuerpo del comentario. El término de búsqueda (`windows`) aparece una vez en ese fragmento.

```json
{
  "text_matches": [
    {
      "object_url": "https://api.github.com/repositories/215335/issues/132",
      "object_type": "Issue",
      "property": "body",
      "fragment": "comprehensive windows font I know of).\n\nIf we can find a commonly
      distributed windows font that supports them then no problem (we can use html
      font tags) but otherwise the '(21)' style is probably better.\n",
      "matches": [
        {
          "text": "windows",
          "indices": [
            14,
            21
          ]
        },
        {
          "text": "windows",
          "indices": [
            78,
            85
          ]
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "object_url": "https://api.github.com/repositories/215335/issues/comments/25688",
      "object_type": "IssueComment",
      "property": "body",
      "fragment": " right after that are a bit broken IMHO :). I suppose we could
      have some hack that maxes out at whatever the font does...\n\nI'll check
      what the state of play is on Windows.\n",
      "matches": [
        {
          "text": "Windows",
          "indices": [
            163,
            170
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

> \[!NOTE]
> Most endpoints use `Authorization: Bearer <YOUR-TOKEN>` and `Accept: application/vnd.github+json` headers, plus `X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2026-03-10`. Curl examples below omit these standard headers for brevity.

## Search code

```
GET /search/code
```

Searches for query terms inside of a file. This method returns up to 100 results per page.
When searching for code, you can get text match metadata for the file content and file path fields when you pass the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see Text match metadata.
For example, if you want to find the definition of the addClass function inside jQuery repository, your query would look something like this:
q=addClass+in:file+language:js+repo:jquery/jquery
This query searches for the keyword addClass within a file's contents. The query limits the search to files where the language is JavaScript in the jquery/jquery repository.
Considerations for code search:
Due to the complexity of searching code, there are a few restrictions on how searches are performed:

Only the default branch is considered. In most cases, this will be the master branch.
Only files smaller than 384 KB are searchable.
You must always include at least one search term when searching source code. For example, searching for language:go is not valid, while amazing language:go is.

### Parameters

#### Headers

* **`accept`** (string)
  Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.

#### Path and query parameters

* **`q`** (string) (required)
  The query contains one or more search keywords and qualifiers. Qualifiers allow you to limit your search to specific areas of GitHub Enterprise Server. The REST API supports different qualifiers than the web interface for GitHub Enterprise Server. To learn more about the format of the query, see Constructing a search query. See "Searching code" for a detailed list of qualifiers.

* **`sort`** (string)
  Sorts the results of your query. Can only be indexed, which indicates how recently a file has been indexed by the GitHub Enterprise Server search infrastructure. Default: best match
  Can be one of: `indexed`

* **`order`** (string)
  Determines whether the first search result returned is the highest number of matches (desc) or lowest number of matches (asc). This parameter is ignored unless you provide sort.
  Default: `desc`
  Can be one of: `desc`, `asc`

* **`per_page`** (integer)
  The number of results per page (max 100). For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `30`

* **`page`** (integer)
  The page number of the results to fetch. For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `1`

### HTTP response status codes

* **200** - OK

* **304** - Not modified

* **403** - Forbidden

* **422** - Validation failed, or the endpoint has been spammed.

## Search commits

```
GET /search/commits
```

Find commits via various criteria on the default branch (usually main). This method returns up to 100 results per page.
When searching for commits, you can get text match metadata for the message field when you provide the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see Text match
metadata.
For example, if you want to find commits related to CSS in the octocat/Spoon-Knife repository. Your query would look something like this:
q=repo:octocat/Spoon-Knife+css

### Parameters

#### Headers

* **`accept`** (string)
  Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.

#### Path and query parameters

* **`q`** (string) (required)

The REST API supports the same qualifiers as the web interface for GitHub Enterprise Server. To learn more about the format of the query, see Constructing a search query. See "Searching commits" for a detailed list of qualifiers.

* **`sort`** (string)
  Sorts the results of your query by author-date or committer-date. Default: best match
  Can be one of: `author-date`, `committer-date`

* **`order`** (string)
  Determines whether the first search result returned is the highest number of matches (desc) or lowest number of matches (asc). This parameter is ignored unless you provide sort.
  Default: `desc`
  Can be one of: `desc`, `asc`

## Search issues and pull requests

```
GET /search/issues
```

Find issues by state and keyword. This method returns up to 100 results per page.
When searching for issues, you can get text match metadata for the issue title, issue body, and issue comment body fields when you pass the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted
search results, see Text match metadata.
For example, if you want to find the oldest unresolved Python bugs on Windows. Your query might look something like this.
q=windows+label:bug+language:python+state:open\&sort=created\&order=asc
This query searches for the keyword windows, within any open issue that is labeled as bug. The search runs across repositories whose primary language is Python. The results are sorted by creation date in ascending order, which means the oldest issues appear first in the search results.
Note

For requests made by GitHub Apps with a user access token, you can't retrieve a combination of issues and pull requests in a single query. Requests that don't include the is:issue or is:pull-request qualifier will receive an HTTP 422 Unprocessable Entity response. To get results for both issues and pull requests, you must send separate queries for issues and pull requests. For more information about the is qualifier, see "Searching only issues or pull requests."

### Parameters

#### Headers

* **`accept`** (string)
  Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.

#### Path and query parameters

* **`q`** (string) (required)
  The query contains one or more search keywords and qualifiers. Qualifiers allow you to limit your search to specific areas of GitHub Enterprise Server. The REST API supports the same qualifiers as the web interface for GitHub Enterprise Server. To learn more about the format of the query, see Constructing a search query. See "Searching issues and pull requests" for a detailed list of qualifiers.

* **`sort`** (string)
  Sorts the results of your query by the number of comments, reactions, reactions-+1, reactions--1, reactions-smile, reactions-thinking\_face, reactions-heart, reactions-tada, or interactions. You can also sort results by how recently the items were created or updated, Default: best match
  Can be one of: `comments`, `reactions`, `reactions-+1`, `reactions--1`, `reactions-smile`, `reactions-thinking_face`, `reactions-heart`, `reactions-tada`, `interactions`, `created`, `updated`

* **`order`** (string)
  Determines whether the first search result returned is the highest number of matches (desc) or lowest number of matches (asc). This parameter is ignored unless you provide sort.
  Default: `desc`
  Can be one of: `desc`, `asc`

* **`per_page`** (integer)
  The number of results per page (max 100). For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `30`

* **`page`** (integer)
  The page number of the results to fetch. For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `1`

* **`advanced_search`** (string)
  Set to true to use advanced search.
  Example: <http://api.github.com/search/issues?q={query}&advanced_search=true>

* **`search_type`** (string)
  The type of search to perform on issues. When not specified, the default is lexical search.

semantic — performs a pure semantic (vector) search using embedding-based understanding.
hybrid — combines semantic search with lexical search for best results.

Semantic and hybrid search require authentication and are rate limited to 10 requests per minute.
Only applies to issue searches (/search/issues).
Can be one of: `semantic`, `hybrid`

### HTTP response status codes

* **200** - OK

* **304** - Not modified

* **401** - Requires authentication

* **403** - Forbidden

* **422** - Validation failed, or the endpoint has been spammed.

* **503** - Service unavailable

### Code examples

## Search labels

```
GET /search/labels
```

Find labels in a repository with names or descriptions that match search keywords. Returns up to 100 results per page.
When searching for labels, you can get text match metadata for the label name and description fields when you pass the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see Text match metadata.
For example, if you want to find labels in the linguist repository that match bug, defect, or enhancement. Your query might look like this:
q=bug+defect+enhancement\&repository\_id=64778136
The labels that best match the query appear first in the search results.

### Parameters

#### Headers

* **`accept`** (string)
  Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.

#### Path and query parameters

* **`repository_id`** (integer) (required)
  The id of the repository.

* **`q`** (string) (required)
  The search keywords. This endpoint does not accept qualifiers in the query. To learn more about the format of the query, see Constructing a search query.

* **`sort`** (string)
  Sorts the results of your query by when the label was created or updated. Default: best match
  Can be one of: `created`, `updated`

* **`order`** (string)
  Determines whether the first search result returned is the highest number of matches (desc) or lowest number of matches (asc). This parameter is ignored unless you provide sort.
  Default: `desc`
  Can be one of: `desc`, `asc`

* **`per_page`** (integer)
  The number of results per page (max 100). For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `30`

* **`page`** (integer)
  The page number of the results to fetch. For more information, see "Using pagination in the REST API."
  Default: `1`

### HTTP response status codes

## Search repositories

```
GET /search/repositories
```

Find repositories via various criteria. This method returns up to 100 results per page.
When searching for repositories, you can get text match metadata for the name and description fields when you pass the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see Text match metadata.
For example, if you want to search for popular Tetris repositories written in assembly code, your query might look like this:
q=tetris+language:assembly\&sort=stars\&order=desc
This query searches for repositories with the word tetris in the name, the description, or the README. The results are limited to repositories where the primary language is assembly. The results are sorted by stars in descending order, so that the most popular repositories appear first in the search results.

### Parameters

#### Headers

* **`accept`** (string)
  Setting to `application/vnd.github+json` is recommended.

#### Path and query parameters

* **`q`** (string) (required)
  The query contains one or more search keywords and qualifiers. Qualifiers allow you to limit your search to specific areas of GitHub Enterprise Server.

## Search topics

```
GET /search/topics
```

Find topics via various criteria. Results are sorted by best match. This method returns up to 100 results per page. See "Searching topics" for a detailed list of qualifiers.
When searching for topics, you can get text match metadata for the topic's short\_description, description, name, or display\_name field when you pass the text-match media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see Text match metadata.
For example, if you want to search for topics related to Ruby that are featured on <https://github.com/topics>. Your query might look like this:
q=ruby+is:featured
This query searches for topics with the keyword ruby and limits the results to find only topics that are featured. The topics that are the best match for the query appear first in the search results.

### Parameters
