Paper API - Search for documents

[joell]

In the Paper API, it doesn't look like there's a search endpoint or parameter on the `/docs/list` endpoint to constrain results by a particular query.

Is there any way to search for documents? If not, is this something that's on the roadmap?

Thanks!

The API doesn't offer a way to do that, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that may be implemented though.

Thanks for the update.

I'll be keeping an eye on this post / the documentation to see if anything changes.

Checking to see if this is now possible? I'd like to automatically tag and list new paper docs created into my pinboard account.

No, unfortunately the API still doesn't offer this.

I may be wrong, but it looks like this is now available in the API?

@ajwaxman That's a preview/alpha endpoint, not meant for general use or for use in production code, as it's subject to change or removal without warning.

Got it, thanks for the clarification!
