# names on POST /v2/teams/search stops working

Calls to POST /v2/teams/search, body parameter data.names on Productboard API stopped working on April 14, 2026.

On April 14, 2026, the data.names body parameter was removed from POST /v2/teams/search. Calls using this parameter fail since that date. The change removes deprecated legacy flat properties from the search request body.

## What to use instead

Send the teams filters in the structured data.filter and data.search objects, such as data.filter.id and data.filter.fields.*.
