Any plans to add a /feeds/search endpoint like the one the web app uses when you add a subscription?

Thanks for this API! It's handy.

I noticed that when adding a new subscription via the web app, the search string (which may or may not be a URL) is passed as a POST request to the /feeds/search endpoint.

That endpoint isn't currently documented. Any chance it could be if it's ok to use?

Hi @ooloth,

The equivalent for the API is Create Subscription.

Thanks!

"Create Subscription" works (that's what I'm using now), but isn't quite equivalent since you need to provide a domain or URL (as you explain in the docs 🙌 ) to avoid a 404.

Whereas, when you click "Add" in the web app and enter a search term, /feeds/search does a nice job locating options to choose from.

Are there any plans to expose a similar feed search endpoint via the API?

Ah, I see!

Searching by anything other than a url is relatively new.

I think it will be brought to the API eventually, but I want to see how it’s working on the web a bit longer.

Awesome! Makes sense to test it out. Looking forward to possibly seeing it here later.

This API and Feedbin's saved searches feature are super handy tools for those of us who enjoy nerding out, btw. Thanks again.
