endCrawlDate on POST /search stops working
Stopped working
On April 15, 2026, the body parameter endCrawlDate stops working on POST /search. Requests sending this parameter fail to apply it, as the provider will have it silently ignored. This change affects all requests targeting POST /search that include endCrawlDate.
What to use instead of these calls
Remove startCrawlDate and endCrawlDate and use the published date filters instead.
